Contracting your heart

I am the blood pulsating through your veins
contracting your heart …

Mistaken ideas always end in bloodshed, but in every case it is someone else’s blood. This is why our thinkers feel free to say just about anything.  Albert Camus

Where we are going, we need no pass …

Without a pass – Die kind is nie dood nie (Ingrid Jonker May 1960)

 


the force that bonds A LIFE
overcoming the boundaries of time and space,
of our‘selves’

Amor fati!
yes, well, yes

*awkwardly pulling the face together with the shoulders as if the head is leaving*
quietly leaving the law,
of what ought to
and
what thou shalt not …
A LIFE
how absurd, how abstract judgment seems to be,
as one opens-up to understanding!
leaving THE FATHERS,
the HOLEY WRIT,
escaping
the image of death,
the solitude,
the loneliness …
Embracing a life, 
not my life or your life,
but a life –
when we grow in understanding that …
A LIFE is being alive, 
A LIFE is being a life,
while we die everyday,
becoming anew


Running in circles simultaneously bouncing between poles
one crawls, digging the dirt,
one try standing-up tall,
one falls,
[just-ease – just-tease]
no need to rush,
a different speed,
a passage to the outside
where it is no longer important
to say I!

Running in circles simultaneously bouncing between poles
Creating a loop
a binding force
a current
a flow
a passage to the outside
where it is no longer important
to say I!

Running in circles simultaneously bouncing between poles
Press: Enter
Press: Flow
Intertwined and outward bound
Drifting away from the hole
A kinda vertigo
– go – go – go –
Let it be!
Let it go!

Between the darkness
between the light –
the only thing is a flow!

The fuzzy borders between theory and praxis

The possibility of thinking law as thinking life

Deleuze in a conversation with Foucault, suggested that a new relationship between theory and practice is emerging. Deleuze explains the relationship between theory and practice was considered to be a process of totalisation where practice was either perceived as the application of theory or practice inspired the development of theory to oppose practice. Colebrook elaborates on the relationship between theory and practice in the context of law. Law is grounded in the ‘terror of the signifier’ and is still very much subjugated to the linguistic paradigm. This means that law assumes that life is ‘necessarily experienced as mediated or constituted through a symbolic system of language’. She argues that theory relates to law, because theory assumes that ‘there must be some lawful process through which such a world is constituted’ insofar ‘as we experience a world as having a certain being that is other than ourselves’.

Constitutional democracies – moving beyond abstraction and reflection

Part of an unpublished paper by Linda Stewart

“These days it’s the rights of man that provide our eternal values. It’s the constitutional state and other notions everyone recognizes as very abstract. And it’s in the name of all this that thinking’s fettered, that any analysis in terms of movements is blocked. But if we’re so oppressed, it’s because our movement’s being restricted, not because our eternal values are being violated. In barren times philosophy retreats to reflecting “on” things. If it’s not itself creating anything, what can it do but reflect on something? So it reflects on eternal or historical things, but can itself no longer make any move (Deleuze Negotiations 121-122, emphasis added).”

Spinoza’s God

As Spinoza says, it is only by human attributes (goodness, justice, charity and so on) that God “communicates” to human creatures the perfections they possess. It is, on the other hand, through his own attributes that God communicates to all creatures the power proper to each (Deleuze Expressionism in Philosophy 91).

Moving with the earth

I have been reading philosophy for almost 3 years. I realized from my reading that I needed to develop my own immanent ethical guidelines. Deleuze in his lecture on Rousseau calls it “nomos” (loose organizing principles). I had to figure out how to move with the earth or how to surf the wave. These principles are not only derived from philosophical text but are also a result of experiencing life.
