doing philosophy: spewspew, candycandy, modes of virtual representation http://www.alansondheim.org/spewspew07.png http://www.alansondheim.org/spewspew.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/candycandy.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/candycandy.png for a long time i've worked with the interior of the body, embodiment, mannerism, approaches to sexualities, abjections, in virtual worlds; spewspew is close to the bone here, to the flesh, to the flux which carries itself past the bone, that is, liquefies, reproduces only itself, cycles through. annihilation and nothing arouses, nothing dies, is born, libidinal economy emptied, of itself. candycandy makes me loving, sweet of sickness, surfaces sticky with sweet pastels, motor mechanism reveling in representation. for a long time representation stops at super/structure, closes of, cauterizes the fragment; spewspew floods beyond that, wets the pixels, dissolves the screen. candycandy sutures the screen, dries the tears, the frisson, such sweet tastebuds, you'll see; candycandy is the realm of sight, spewspew only begins there at the lip or nub, tends towards dissolution.
