and the production of subjectivity….

6. In A Year Of 13 Moons, Fassbinder, 1978
Internal voice and external reality
Fiction in real locations of everyday practices that increasingly are
‘representing’ nightmares, because they are hidden from the public (bite
sized foods on supermarket shelves).
Shock and heightened sense of reality.

in social life.

10. Albert Einstein
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful
servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and
has forgotten the gift.
11. Nicolas Bourriaud – Relational Aesthetics
Instead of culminating in hoped-for emancipation, the advances of
technologies and “Reason” made it that much easier to exploit the South
of the planet earth, blindly replace human labour by machines, and set up
more and more sophisticated subjugation techniques, all through a
general rationalisation of the production process.
Island of Flowers, Furtado, 1989
