Mycorrhyizal networks became entangled in the underground theatre
work of Minus Theatre. But for reasons that rather go against those
adduced in and around CMNs here, in their emphasis on the gains to
be had, got from, harvested off the literal and metaphorical
fungolalia and fungalia. The gain, for example, of communication:
what if--we speculated in the spectacles we made--communication were
not the point, but an exploitation-abstraction layer covering
over--a too-human groundcover--the <i>work</i> of decomposition?
What if communication is <i>in </i>and an <i>excess</i> of this
work? And what then if the scatter, crackle and static of languages
were the condition of their significations? The breaking-down, the
waste itself, the soil, ground? Such work--of decomposition--would
not be valued according to elements and minerals <i>liberated</i>
but would be valued in and through itself, as forming the maternal
matrices in indeterminacy, inaction, asignifying, across inorganic
and organic strata. Decomposition lays waste: elements are
understood to be liberated and the value is in this breaking down,
giving off phosphorescing halos in an excess of incandescent energy
illumining the dark, not a light dispelling it.<br>
