[-empyre-] to brazil with love

Mon May 26 20:26:11 EST 2008

hei people!!!   Irina e Eduardo, jennifer, brians, everybody!!

first, i have to say my english is not so good, so,,,, sorry some
mistakes...  hilan translate our answers
but we are waitting to be aproved em empire  (esquizotrans at gmail.com) for he
receive the list aswell.

 Irina,,,,  i don't know  ícarus project, what about?

and well,   erotism and politcs

we can start talking about body control, control of sexuality and excessive
producion about sexual desire,
we can talk about estereotips, models, fashions, the control of abortion
(woman bodies)...  production of subjectivity or erotic subjetivity

we can talk about all feminism staff, or war against sida, or queer and
homosexual moviment... glbtt, pornography economy and pornography like a
social moviment too...

everything i talk until now is sexo, body, erotism and POLITICS....

but...   we already know it..

i thing the word incarnation eduardo brought here is very important,
becouse to bring back the body into a experience for thoughs, knowledge is
maybe the more important micropolitic we can do....

but it is not just it...   we are leaving a special moment about sexual
narratives...   because the internet, the comunications,
the free software, colaborative stuff,  the narratives of sexualities is
changing, people are doing they're own videos, animations,
parties, changing the mecanism estetic of pornography industry..  and
more...  make this revolution of colaborative masturbation internacional...

we have some examples of events whit diferents groups of interess like
precarious, vulnerabilities, prostitution, homeless, imigration, free
pornography, queer, free software, ciberfeminism, ciberativism, free radio,
etc...

we made some events like this in brasil, putting in the same space of
imersion prostitucion, queer, indian and mst (moviment for earth)

well...   in spain it start happend and i could see or participate in this
last tree mouths of some encounters like this

we dont have a answer...  but experimentations....   it is the challenge,

we are trying to make a event here in madri the name is "noise and
democracy"  where every this stuff is putting toguether but not
for everybody discuss, talk, talk, make polemics...  i thing this kind of
events came whit a leatlle part of inconscientizacion...
sometimes i call this events squizoanalisis like guattari ideas......
becouse it is about *frequency and intensification and not about more
consciencia*,,,,,  it is a ritual of empowerment...  and of course it is a
leatle dangerous...  because the encounter of alterity - alteridad -
(radical diferences) is not always harmony...   you have to be prepared to
stay there...   *its conectives lines*...   it is about xamanism, noise
music and body...   for make your body open and strong in the same time...
i think toni negri could call it like a constituint event.

well...  i will write more after and ask hilan to translate that..  i hope
it dont seems like spiritualist discourse eheheoheoehoeo, becouse we are
not,,,
