About sex and machines

, — Posted by xname @ 02:19

Writing on a blog is a technique to anchor ourselves to something imaginary like a net page. When i feel completely lost, i try to grasp the immaterial spiting myself in the direction of the wind. What will come back to me, and whether it will, who knows.

 ... if we conceive of a being whose faculties are so sharpened that he can follow every molecule in its course, such a being, whose attributes are as essentially finite as our own, would be able to do what is impossible to us.

What does it mean to own an image?

— Posted by xname @ 16:43

What was formerly known as "information society" has turned into an image economy based on the techniques of imaging information or turning information into images. Images act as storage units for framed portions of psychic realities that can be duplicated without significant loss and can be distributed almost in real time. Consequently, the image turns out as both subjected to processes of design and as designing processes of subjectivation.

I am still living in Amsterdam, my house was evicted at the end of October. After two months in a great squat in the centre it happened to me to have a warm flat available. The first month was paid, the second was my first rent in two years. NO fun.

Perche' un blog...

Sono stata intervistata da Tatiana Bazzichelli per Internet Magazine, assieme ad altre dieci donne blogger...

Ecco un estratto dell'intervista: 

"Credo che il blog abbia un valore 'psicomagico', il fatto di condividere e non solo scrivere determinate esperienze libera in parte l'animo di colui che scrive.
Inoltre credo sia la prima volta nella storia che le donne parlano di lore stesse in modo cosi' massiccio e capillare. Le donne hanno finalmente uno spazio, e la creatura femminile si propone, svela la sua identita', esce allo scoperto. E' finito il tempo della segregazione, finalmente la misoginia potra' essere per lo meno motivata: noi donne ci raccontiamo, paure pregi e difetti! Dunque, se l'oggetto uomo in quanto tale continuera' ad avere paura, questo sara' in base alla conoscenza del soggetto donna; ci allontaniamo dalla xenofobia, dalla paura del diverso in quanto tale, dal semplice timore di cio' che non si conosce..."

February 2008, Amsterdam, Damrak.

In the Damrak 16 there used to be a squat, called Chequepoint...
In front of it, a police camera.
Only a money-machine is left.

A collection of opinions on terror and its derivatives,
the real voice of random passengers.
