SPECIMORTIGO

1. Volition

 

Liberate, de-liberate.

 

rethink, recommunicate

 

we, the privileged,

owners of the cultural structures

we are about to learn to hear once again

the deprived

the prisioners

the unhappy ones

the insane, and...

the animals

these children

whose language we do not understand

whose nature we despise

 

2. Ritual

 

Mediatic ritual and transformation

from cross-cultural communication

from cross-specimen communication.

 

Decree, plead, prayer and word

I decree

that from this irradiating knot,

the most radical form of art

is to be sent

 

an art

that inevitably connects

forms of life,

imagination,

the scientific landscape

and emerging forms of mediatic culture

 

A persistent, urgent, art

 

strong

like an animal's scream

 

Now I imagine and determine

that from this chamber of presence

reverberates

 

the sobbing,

the breathing

the suffering

from those deprived

of our power

 

let's think together today

about which direction to take

let's abandon sure ground

 

before the incision

we shall not be silent

we shall investigate to the end

our past

our attitudes and their consequences

3. Fiction

 

Animals and men

physically and psycologically controlled
