[-empyre-] C and V and "New Weapons" (Re-thinking and Re-Deploying) "Queer"

[Robert Summers]

I think we are relationally coming up with, what Deleuze, would say
"new weapons" to discuss "queer" and all that is around "it."  And, I
like the way it is being reattached to feminism: i applaud this move.
I also want to keep this thinking both on the level of feminism and
new media: for a new monster -- like a Frankenstein, but beyond
"sexual difference" in order to include the transsexual (Butler,
_Undoing Gender_).

I think C and V are both onto something: a line of flight -- it is
serving; I am trying to catch/latch on: think differently.  Indeed, I
want to think more about this.  It is absolutely crucial on many
levels.

As ever, Robert
