It’s called “Tetris (call for a code switch)”, and is written for creatives, thinkers and subversively oriented readers of all backgrounds who are fed up with mainstream cultural output, but are looking for more than just another subculture to connect to: those interested in advancing contemporary British counterculture itself. By providing a breakdown of this culture and its current limitations, Tetris provides them the analytical tools to try to do precisely this.

It discusses race relations in the cultural landscape, and hypothesizes that British counterculture can only work as a force for social progression through creative and political dialogue across points of ethnic difference. That subconscious racism in postmillennial counterculture rendered such dialogue difficult; weakened the operability of the left, and created the social, political and cultural conditions for anti-immigration riots to break out in early August.
