The role of the Venezuelan people in the political crisis of the past decade is ironic. The paradox here is not so much the will of society, as the capacity for that will to pass through a recognized procedure and become legitimate power.

{she/her} Indep Artist • Founder & director across arts, culture, society, politics • Film director • Researcher A self-constituted intellectual forged through structural violence, multifaceted over decades of founding & shaping scenes/spaces/institutions.
True peacemakers do not call for bombs and blockades. They defend truth, justice, and the sanctity of human life.
Since those days, one cannot count how many deaths, how much blood has been shed, “babys in the thunderclouds”. Here and there, over decades. GY!BE. To bear witness. The triggering of anger and resistance, calls for responses and actions, and/or to uplift each other from distant fights.

All those who have never condemned genocide now claim to condemn political violence, this is ridiculous and ironic.
Funny how the "only happy talk" rule about America that is going to be enforced on museums about history is not going to be enforced against false depictions of contemporary cities as crime-ridden hellholes.
Such genocides do not constitute a discrete event but unfold over time and share their duration with the lifespan of the regime that commits them.
A genocidal regime is one that produces, cultivates, trades, uses, and legitimizes forms of violence; simultaneously socializing the military, violence, and domination.

In memory of Robert Wilson. An embodiment of the visionary master and indelible light.
The return of We Lost The Sea marks an almost superior evolution, mirroring the path and Caspian's structured, yet at the same time diverging uniquely. 'We lost the sea' – their own attempt not to become a self-parody of what it tries to be transcendental.

Deconstructs the history of ontology, which is always also a history of the political. The “pulverization” sufficiently “interrupts", throws out of gear. Only it frees action from archai. To the extent that Heidegger undertakes such a deconstruction, he can be considered the first true anarchist.

midnight political critique and "musique concrète" with the documentary "Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat / Bande-son pour un coup d'État" (2024, by Johan Grimonprez)
an (ambitious) return to (not) becoming a self-parody itself. an intense epitaph, by/for objects, cosmic sons, the space travelers, and the leftovers — seems a conscious decision: “there’s no atmosphere”, but we are drenched in atmosphere, beyond the mind—spaceless, timeless.
