Re: [-empyre-] final remarks on noiseless world



"THE SHAPELESS SILENCE OVERBALANCED BY THE
NOISELESSNESS OF THE THUNDERBIRDS BENEATH THE
UNCLOUDED STARS"
1. What is the new aura of technological media? 
2. In the context of Benjamin's angles (angle of
history, angle of art, demon and ...), how should we
grasp the figure of angle and technological media?
3. In the melancholic light of noise (language) as
punishment, what is at stake; the (positive)
aesthetique of noise-John Cage- or  the enigmatic
struggle of Kafka's figures to deactivate noise?
4. What is the relationship between CUT (that
intrested Benjamin in the language of film) or MONTAGE
as the essence of technological media and name of God
(that is, alphabet)? 
5. fato profugus
