By both slacking off from the imperative to work and\, symmetrically\, deliberately abstaining from leisure\, slackers embody a fascinating – and for the productivist majority\, infuriating – performative paradox. Slackers don’t “just” slack off\; they go at it full-tilt. Performing laziness – that is\, the studied and ostentatious practice of doing not much – is all-consuming. But is it subversive? Does it have seditious potential within a regime of productivism? Can it be decreative\, obstructing the reifying thrust of the “creative” industry and class with their “artistic research projects”?
