book Book presentation Cannibalism: Sergio Fiedler
cannibalism. To use the words of Oswald de Andrade, cannibalism is a cultural act of devouring an enemy to make it sacred totem. No talk of cannibalism that we debase and degrade us, but a human fiber diet in pragmatics of violence, we produce and teach us to love the moment of consumption and consummation. When we, academics, cannibals, we have to write, what we do in relation to a territory populated by signs, each with its own origin and destination, with our writing nothing but a particular intersection of multiple pathways that maintain these signs. We devoured the sign to turn it in concept. But we no concept of any sign. Just as the carpenter chooses a special wood to make the table you want, we choose the right material for the direction we want to compose. The choice we make through the reading and interpretation, which read and interpret the signs. The signs are qualities of color, texture, taste and affection, signs capable of being affected and subject to force, or signs that can affect and release a force.
The sign is like a brick, you can use to build a prison or bust a window, its meaning always depends on the force that is able to apprehend him. The sign is a potential indicator of future time, a multiplicity of levels and possible actions. Devour the sign is to give expression to a desired potential that exists within. Our script is then created, not simply a representation of the observed facts.
interpretation becomes in the specific application of a force, the meaning is then a result of an encounter between the lines of force, each of which is a complex of other forces. The process of reading and interpretation that takes place here can be described in any direction indefinitely, so no full expressive tie every significant element in a single logical node. There is no unity, only a light area where the arm meets Craftsman tool and the tool timber, the same way that the eye of the scholar-cannibal is the meaning and the meaning of the word. Here there is no dualism between subject and object, the arm is the raw material wood as well as the eye is the raw material of the word. The academic body of the cannibal is offering to be molded by the jaws of the sign, in the same way that the latter is eaten from the perspective of who reads and interprets. While the signs are not passive, the signs are somewhat somehow always defeated by the interpretation, and ultimately always locked content. The academic-cannibal who gives expression to that content through writing., Is the one who applies more force and takes the win until the text itself becomes a sign for another academic cannibal devour. Whenever we lose control of what they intended, devour the sign is transformed into a totem.
cannibal For the academic, the sense then and there under the despotic shadow of the single word, there is no inevitable and necessary relationship between the logic of the signifier and the logic of meaning, but the constant clash between the two occurred and displacement the creative event is the becoming cannibalistic. We will not sit and wait to be convicted or acquitted by the supreme court of those who defend the canon of the discipline. While our thoughts are stated and occurs within the institutional imagination symbolically demolished ordered but the university moves without rest for the exterior, without fear border guards, unafraid to turn into the brick pops the window.
In the words of Brian Massumi in Users Guide to Capitalism and Schizophrenia, I wonder and I ask the authors of this great book that is Cannibalism: what will be subject to throw the brick at the window? Is it an arm connected to a body? Or an arm attached to a brain caged in a body? What is the connection process between the brain and the brick making impossible without communication between culture and science? How can we explore the potential of their means of expression without being culturalism or naturalism? Is it not then also a mirror glass? Is it not an act of cannibalism to chew and swallow to find the human being to imagine the possibilities and ways of life values \u200b\u200bbeyond the purely human? Sergio Fiedler
