(excerpt)


It is as if time flows besides us. One hundred 
years after Samuel Beckett's date of birth we 
have reached perfection in the grammar of 
waiting. Words upon words are uttered as if they 
were painted by numbers.
The structure is always the same. We do not 
desire. We defend the ultimate freedom that the 
world has gained since the most recent 
revolutions; words without speech. Hannah 
Arendt's "treasure" is lost to the one and only 
governing order. Speechless we follow into Martin 
Heidegger's trap. Our archives have stored the 
writings of Paul Celan.

[Š]
your golden hair Margarete
your ashen hair Shulamith
[Š]
(Paul Celan, Death Fugue, 1952)

"I am my own sacrifice, designed to be sacred", 
says the girl who is the product of
scientific vision, and she continues: "I am the 
synthesis of holiness and pleasure.
Innocence is immanent in me."

And yet, who, that knew anything about life, 
would surrender the chance of remaining always 
young, however fantastic that chance might be, or 
with what fateful consequences it might be 
fraught?"
(Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray - 1890)

Maybe it was the memory of the mirror, appearing 
as a fluid image in one of the books that I once 
read, which led me to this forgotten place. The 
unity of one single person was depicted in the 
mirror as a symphony composed of present and past 
and thus as well of future personae; a symphony 
of life, which would never repeat itself and in 
which every chord would appear as a possibility 
for the myriad pluralities accruing from it - an 
almost impossible thought in this millennium, in 
which humanity is about to reach its objective of 
tracking everything that is uncertain. 
Paradoxically, it was this unknown image of the 
plurality of reflections that revealed the path 
to this place, which is not drawn on any map.

The rectangular room is painted in bright white. 
No window or door disturbs the continuity of the 
walls. However, there must be openings in the 
ceiling, since natural light enters the room from 
above, along the walls, as funnel-shaped rays.

I am ONE. I walk to be, ALWAYS
THE LAST in my sequence.
My memories are operators to my dreams

A question of style?

(A dress : Penelope):

And no I told you I'll tell you the truth now 
they'll always be lying like him left tears alone 
I'm on the streets again bowling down the streets 
again Columbine endless reflection I'll tell you 
the truth now this isn't an infinite tale and I 
know there were better times yes 'breasts all 
perfume yes' but these times are different from 
yes times I told you I'll tell you the truth now 
I wear this dress with this tag inside from this 
shop I suppose it's got the name from this wife 
of this king sailing and heard the sirens sing 
and suffered survived he was called a hero and 
this I wear now and I wear it for you now down 
the streets again in this dress with this tag 
inside and tell you to tell the truth about this 
liar and that money there will always be and no 
yes times I am ashamed and turn tears against 
tears and images against this strange god of the 
arms bombs as well I told you I'll tell you the 
truth now with this tag inside this dress weaving 
an and for an and.

"It is in poetry that life will reside" wrote 
Constant - member of the Situationist 
International (SI) in 1956. However, in the title 
to the text he added to this "will" yet another 
future. "Tomorrow" the title says. It may be time 
to posit against this tomorrow that will never 
come another infinite.

Yes now yes.
