[-empyre-] to brazil with love

[Eduardo Molinari]

Hi Irina, dear all

erotic and politics... intensive connection!
I agree with you, the states bores me too about this.

what is to "erotize politic" today?
what are the connections between body and ideologies today?
what is the political dimension of the body today?

to erotize politic for me is only possible when incarnation happens.
then you can "feel" the political actions, also the enemy ones.


what do you think Irina?

thank you!
eduardo
