Lost frames of an image that are inevitably recorded in one’s head .
The abstraction of light due to abnormal rhythm of movement .
A parameter of time translated to fit the sloth of human comprehension.
The space where you fear to lose your balance .
It feels fatal.
The lost frames between one moment and another .
The image that you’ll never know you saw.
A way to express a change of rhythm .
The guilty party for never feeling the present .
The lack of focus.

If you have been assigned to the underclass any other identity you may covet and struggle to attain is a priori denied. The meaning of the 'underclass' identity is an absence of identity; the effacement or denial of individuality, of 'face'- that object of ethical duty and moral care. You are cast outside the social space in which identities are sought, chosen, constructed, evaluated, confirmed or refuted.
The 'underclass' is a collection of people who have had their 'bios' reduced to 'zoe'. The same fate meet the refugees - the stateless, the sans-papiers - the non-territorials in a world of territorially grounded sovereignty.
A most spectacular and perhaps even the most cosnequential, dimension of the planetary-wide expansion of the West has been the slow yet relentless globalization of the production of human waste, or more precisely 'wasted humans' - humans no longer necessary for the completion of the economic cyrcle and thus impossible to accomodate within a social framework resonant with the capitalist economy.

Crossing over
between the lines of words you speak when you are alone
( they bounce against the wall in their final attempt to murder you).
Muddy Road: The one that carries your footsteps while you run towards the only redemption a corpse as yourself could ever dream of.
A sweet slumber under the blue light of a transmitter that never received or perceived you as a being.
A quiet death is refreshing.
Ετικέτες
amusing void,
the certainty of silence.
