Subject: some sort of phenomenology
Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2004 00:19:50 -0400 (EDT)
some sort of phenomenology of the work of hacking and motion-capture in relation to codework and mywork: . palimpsest and interweavings . gatherings around subterranean tokens . the Wager of the devolution of the natural which does not hold; the natural excretes, oozes, destroyed by the cleansed proper body. the worst mistake is the subsummation of the natural beneath the belly of the technological and the efflorescence of extinctions that results. . code as Barrier throughout the world, the operative of code as distancing, defoliation replacing Vietnam napalm-burn. code destroys one world, opens another; one always has the attributes of negation to ensure compliance. with what? with the subject, subjectivity-at-a- distance. .Hegel and the porosity of the world as the physics of the word increasingly turn towards the porous; it's not hacking by one in relation to the other, but the culture hacked itself, self-hacked, hacking resonance and harmonics, the hacking of the hacked (already opened up by O'Reilly's series); in other words, no privacy, no security, the interweaving of infiltration and filtration. . the Plasma neutral and the plasmatic world, world of the Plasmatics, plasma as standard states of matter, (un)stated matter, hacking software hacked to soft hacking, absolute loss of information, fast-forward thought and its loss. . momentary negations x^~x -> 0(x) the null set relative to x-semantics, thus neither x nor not-x but x-sememe, negation carried through to the other as x and not-x are venn-separated by inscription relative to (x, not-x), but x-semantics/sememe "has something to do with it" - so we consider porosity as those state which "have something to do with things" or with the configuration, constructibility of things or entities, see http://www.asondheim.org/statepositive.png http://www.asondheim.org/statenegative.jpg . palimpsest and interweavings gatherings beginning thinking about soft-weavings. . around subterranean tokens the Wager of the devolution of the natural code which is also the waver of the world strewn with entities, in constant states of withdrawal, maintenance and cleansing . here against the waver-Wager is where words begin to fail, so does perceptual organization, some sort of phenomenology (codework breaking, or the slough of the symbol . symbolic slough organization of difference is the origin of institutionalization, non-deferral _
