Praxis 2: Our monstrosities - complication and poetry
our? monstrosities - complication and poetry
Increasingly this post-digital society is pictured as an alien monstrosity, an insatiable thing that appropriates the energy of everything it touches and, in the process, propels the world toward the inorganic. But it is not only parasitic, eating and devastating the world and its souls. At the same moment it is a living monster that is fruitful, productive and multiplies. Whatever transformations it generates are just stages in its wild and monstrous digestive process.
Do we have answers? Should we better disentangle our acts of resistance from narratives of productivity and redemption? Should we stress and affirm exactly monstrosities not as outside, but as assemblages of humans, animals, things, as milieus, as surround? Should we return ourselves to these monstrosities and their unproductive potency, poetics of slowness, lazyness and dis/ability? More poetry than therapy, more complication than comfort. Lets listen to cacophony and noise - telling us that there is „a wild beyond to the structures we inhabit and that inhabit us”.
