PIONEERS OF GREY ZONES

The artistic action is the motion which precedes and produces meaning. With=
out the concept of Art, without an efficient language which such art produc=
es, not one independent cut-defiance-beauty would attain meaning which is =
detected through it by the transparency of the surface.

This text provokes, makes transparent the different indexes of minority (w=
oman-minority, artist-minority, artistic action-minority, number-minority, =
nation-minority, personality/individual-minority, choice-minority). Thus i=
t corresponds with my status and life/the production of meaning in that st=
atus, in that zone. That is why I decided, once again, to rhetorically advo=
cate the Space /Zone which cannot be inhabited (VERWERFUNG). It is that s=
ocially unacceptable space that I choose, mostly isolated but densely popul=
ated and because of all the characteristics necessary in order to define, d=
escribe and expand the area of the subject. Aware how much the role of the =
subject is subversive in regards to cloned and hypnotic social contracts on=
which the history of gender is in most cases based.

Repetition/seriality/monohromy of almost the same work represents the presi=
stancy of the very exclusion of minority to comfortably inhabit its space-=
region, for the minority to divide in as many parts as it can, to produce,=
so that the plurality would also be exposed as the one who bears the zon=
e of creativity and thus the language of critique.

Language buzzes and is being sharpened in all the grey/ghettoized/ utopian/=
undemocratic zones The figure, personality, subject/identity is autistic, =
rejected, isolated and unnecessary thus it is unavoidably self-satisfied, =
optimistic because it steals language (language of the nation, language of =
a foreigner, language of psychology, language of economy, language of new =
technology, forgotten languages, language of medicine, language of globali=
zation and all kinds of alienations, disintegrations, deconstructions, diso=
rientations and dehumanizations, deteritorializations, de- of de-) and inte=
nsifies its permanent satisfaction from them.

Wasilisa in land of mind spagheti


Brain,as a scientificly constructed object,could not be anything alse exept
object for education and creatid mind in general sense:gnosis and praxis.
Knowlege,power and I are triple rooth of mind problematization.But,based on
knowlege,as a problem,thinking mean to look,and to speak.Mind is in
disjunction between loocking and talking.Ewery time we hawe to find their
relation.
Gnostic have only one argument against sceptic;sceptic indifference is fols
when they chose bread insted rock,for eat.That argument made the world go
around,permanent production from food to weapon...Term ethic is something
like ghost- body suporting life and compromise all history of ,so
caled,
