"Anke disappearing in a syncretic field of floating opera's amused
the audience while someone stole the apparatus of their minds.
A time of Panic spread across the vowels, indicative of folds
within her body as it longed for Upper-Earth...
Another golden opportunity had passed by unnoticed. "

C.1-7.

 de dichter tot zijn muze, in haar afwezigheid

 [dv, 1993]

1.

Omwonden hoofd, bevliesde hand,
in ruis van roem verschanst skelet
& klaaglijk in de kortste zomerwind :

Uw woord verkrampt een dag & is
om lichtval uitgesponnen punt,
een eeuw een pop, lethargisch nu

van nu & niet de zwangerschap
van leven uit de dood ontdooit.
Zwermt eensklaps dan haar wraak

gespiegeld in Uw glas, mijn oog,
haar blauw ten hoge hemel uit :
het is dan donker nu heelal.

2.

Het is dan donker nu heelal,
nu van het hofdeel eerst beloofd
een letter rest, 't verworpen ik,

een ons dat voor een dag of drie
in 't vaalste licht van eenheid droomt,
van god die gaf & vlinders baarde.

Spreidt dan van daar, Uw hoge zang
& het diepst doorvoelde pleiten
voor lief & land & leed ten spijt,

het zwijgen, driftig zwaaiend uit
de knop die prangt & splijt, over
U, Uw blad, mijn zien & stervend

waken niet eenzelfde, stille droom?

3.

Eén-zelfde stille droom van waken
uit het hoog-betwistte laaglands leed
uit scheuring van éen zin in zinnen,

die in 't rimpelvel van tere vrede
wonden stoten, koortsen open sne'en
ten woeden geven & het zoetste

van gewild verkozen honingzoet
van elks Voorhouts lijf & lustenbloei
met van schand' & hoon & spijt

het vliedend eeuwig, aardse onderwerp,
donker kleuren, zich verderven, rood
met dood berijmen, koud behouden

tot geen kreet nog beeld kan geven.

4.

Tot geen kreet nog beeld kan geven
fluister ik, ontvang van hese klanken
& Uw spel, Uw hel, Uw spelen & het

helen, zon & rijm ontstolen appelblos,
wat blinkend roze nooit vergoeden kan
wat zich ontstijgt, verniet & slaperig

mij verspreekt, ontzegt, & 't dwalen
van uw geest in mij als daad verlaat,
Uw raat & 't schijnen van Uw land ontkracht

tot niemand ons nog dodend roept
& noemt & zegt & dat voorwaardelijk
nu nog meer dan ooit met U :

Uw rijk kome, Uw wil geschiedde.

5.

Uw rijk kome, Uw wil geschiedde
want het mijne loopt in't knellen
van mijn vastste vuist verzand

tot zand ten hoop : een dorp
verwaait aldus bij 't lichte zuchten
van mijn laatste wil een levenslijn

van haar verdaan ten eind, het slot
op mijn nood, mijn dood haar lot
ten spijt & in't vlieden van mijn zijn

uit haar, haar warmst geboden roos
staat afgetekend elke korrel
van mijn liefde doods verhit, verwoord :

kom vriend nu gauw, mijn ster' is heen.

6.

Mijn ster was heen, Uw nacht liep uit
langs open beten, van woeste baar de bede
in een onverschillig land gebeten :

misbaar van één nacht, een nacht & drie
dat ik zo vol van U de dag verliep,
haar klaarte in mijn nacht versliep

& van haar wezen tot Uw vaste waren
licht niet, vuur niet, lijf noch lief
noch van Uw hemel d'aardse constellatie

noch d'hemelse vertroosting van een blijvend
aardig zijn, noch U, noch haar, noch mij,
noch van ons aller lot het liefste zag

& blind & donker schreidde op het donker
waar mijn zwijgen zwart verloren lag.

7.

Waar mijn zwijgen zwart verloren lag
zal ik nog zijn & U ook mij nog mee,
want zijnde is van U het woord gezegd

omdat wat anders kan, zich mij ontzegt.
Ik heb niet lief, mijn leed is mij te
groot, ik heb geen angst, mijn lief

is mij om leed verdaan, ik heb niet
& niets is wat ik heb omdat ik heb &
wat ik heb is niets. Genoeg nu vriend,

verdwaal hierin, van hier zal hij die brak
& brekend bloedde U verstaan, & Uw vast-
heid wedervaren als een zucht die uit haar

mond mijn mond zo mondelings bezoekt,
betracht, veracht & vromelijk bemint.

>http://noemata.net/formlessinterview.txtwhat is the title of this project?

INFORMASJON

formless,   informe

formless art

materialisasjon og elektronisk   kunst

complexity of waste

default

are there any main art   theoretical references?

(yve-alain bois rosalind e. krauss)

what   is the main idea behind the project?

georges bataille, informe, as a   third, since art theory has 
been set up as a battle between form and   content; whereas 
the formless constitutes a third term which stands outside   
the binary thinking which is itself formal.

how does it relate to   your artistic practice?

what here is 'noemata'?

what would be a   short description of the project?

"panorama of the   formless"



what is the formless?

within a history of   modernism that has always repressed 
it in the interest of priveleging formal   mastery.

in the domain of practice they analyze it as an operational   
tool, the repressed structural cunning

neither theme nor form,   formless is, as bataille himself 
expressed it, a "job". the job of formless,   the power of the informe.



everywhere you look it's the   same

can you elaborate on that?

bataille: what it designates has   no rights in any sense 
and gets itself squashed everywhere, like a spider or   
an earthworm. in fact, for academic men to be happy, the 
universe would   have to take shape. all of philosophy as 
no other goal: it is a matter of   giving a frock coat to 
what is, a matemathical frock coat. on the other   hand, 
affirming that the universe resembles nothing and is 
nly formless   amounts to saying that the universe is 
something like a spider or   spit.

is formless the form or the content of the project?

as a   conceptual tool, demonstrate the power, and 
also pick apart certain   categories that seemed 
increasingly useless - 'form' and   'content'



and in the setting of audience subject and art   object?

manet's subject is not located anywhere, not in the 

rab   world of naturalistic prose, nor in the absurd academic 
fictions.   rootlessness. uprooting, a slippage, the true goal 
of his art is to   "disappoint expectations", or just 'disappoint' then.

and each time it so   happened that the public's frustrated 
expectations only redoubled the effect   of the picture.

its indifference to the subject

it is neither form   nor content that interests bataille but the 
operation that displaces both of   them.

an 'operation' - which is to say neither a theme, nor a subject,   
nor a concept - in bataille's thought - scatology or   heterology.

piece of shit. attaining piece of shit

these   operations split off from modernism, insulting the very 
opposition of form   and content, which is itself formal, arising 
as it does from a binary logic,   declaring it null and void.

quack

ink   spots

blekkflekk

how can the formless be a project or be   exhibited?

the formless is an operation, which support it being a project   
and not things or outcome themselves.

no painter more heavily   invested the subject, not with meaning, 
but with that which goes beyond and   is more significant than meaning.

mark of the formless, horizontality,   base materialism, pulse, 
entropy.

classification to   declassify

not fetishization (shit) nor abjects (bodily   fluids)



what would the horizontality be?

horizontality -   man is proud to be erect, but this is 
founded on a repression. vertical, man   has no other
biological sense than to stare at the sun and thus 
burn his   eyes or to contemplate his feet in the mud. 
his present architecture, by   means of which his 
horizontal gaze traverse a vertical visual field, 
is   a travesty.



marcel duchamp was a pitiless   sleuth,



the default and the formless

default

the   type of matter bataille wants to speak about is 
what we have no idea of,   what makes no sense..

matter cannot be reabsorbed by the image (the   concept 
of image presupposes a possible distinction between 
form and   matter, which the formless try to collapse)

bataille's matter is shit or   laughter or an obscene 
word or madness, whatever cuts all discussion short,   
whatever eason cannot drape with a mathematical frock coat. 
whatever   does not lend itself to any metaphorical displacement, 
whatever does not   allow itself to be in-formed

according to bataille, matter is seductive   waste, 
appealing to what is most infantile in us, since 
the blow it   strikes is devolutionary, regressive, low

luguber

scatology, the   science of what is wholly other

, or else map onto an expressionist   model.

just as horizontality and base materialism contradict 
the   myths of human erectness and 'pure visuality', so 
pulsation attacks the   modernist exclustion of temporality 
from the visual field. pulsation   involves endless beat 
that punctures the disembodied self-closure of pure   visuality

what about the pulse?

the pulse alone sexualizes the   gaze , rotoreliefs

machination, repetition, pulse puts into action an   
infinite permutation that annuls metaphor through 
metaphoric   excess.

what about spam?

entropy, information theory,

run   the risk of transforming the formless into a 
figure, of stabilizing it. in   displacing it

an implicit critique of art - everywhere is the   same?

we enter the art gallery as though into a pharmacy, 
looking for   remedies nicely packaged for admissable 
illnesses. whatever its outages, art   is the prisoner 
of its ancient cathartic function and thus, despite   
everything, it remains an agent of social order: it 
is at the service of   homogeneity.

what is base materialism?

base materialism, of which   informe is the most 
concrete manifestation, has the job of de-classifying,   
simultaneously lowering and liberating from all 
ontological prisons,   from any role model.

the formless matter that base materialism claims   
for itself resembles nothing, especially not 
what it should   be.

what about the redundant, surplus value of art?

expenditure.   freud analyzses s 54 the famous 
symbolic transposition of excrement into   gold 
and establishes the relation between retention 
and defecation   (appropriation and excretion). 
bataille: the jewel is associated with   excrement 
not only by contrast: they share a condition of 
pure loss, the   jewel is economic waste by definition. 
the jewel, shit, and the fetish are   all on the level 
of sumptuary expenditure.

furthermore, all   consumption of art is at least in 
part fetishistic, but this is   repressed.

heterological fetishism?

freud . dirt is matter in the   wrong place

leiris, end of document : at present there is no 
means of   making something pass as ugly or repulsive. 
even shit is   pretty.

exquisite corpse, eros and death, two sides of chance:   
endless possibility, and causality/automaton

the exquisite corpse is   ruled by form, so much that 
it's being emptied

jeu lugubre - were a   structure rules absolutely 
over any apparent play of happenstance, a   structure 
of recurrance and compulsion that "automates" and 
programs the   field in relation to death.

the mangy lion

Z.O.N.E. Of No Effort,   does it radiate or not, 
is it formless? would you say recursive is formless
