“We have reached a place where every narrator is reliably unreliable”
Every generation, it seems, has to come to terms with what feels like an honest means of negotiating subjectivities;
Wassilak
Althusser used the word ‘interpellation’ , ‘means of inducting each other into myriad wild microsubjectivities’
Le Guin intersubjectivity not interaction
Mutual phase locking AKA Entrainment
In my own practice titles such as
Finding a Voice in the Crowd
The Tongue was a Rudder…
I’m Spartacus
Can be read as manipulations and play with authorial statements. More recent work prods this overtly, referencing truth values/judgements/binaries which are formed upon cracked and scarred territiories.
Writing and words are important as a material but I still aim for them to abstain from taking the podium. They are a language which exists with and within other languages/materials/media but are not the blood.
Without words does practice dissipate ?
