No Borders Metaphysics

I'm getting closer to a more solid connection between what a post-nihilist thinking can do and what indexicalism provides. While substantives could have an intelligibility that can be extracted, captured, followed or persecuted - with different degrees of success, with different degrees of approximation - because their correction is given by something independent of any situation, indexicals can only be understood in a context. A situated metaphysics is one where the effort of intelligence is a production that is not consummated in a product, in an idea or a thesis that is general and could expose and replace its object - situated thought is not about replacing what is thought but attempts to produce what is not geared towards a further distribution or registration. At the same time, I understand how the indexicality of conceptual thinking is an example and not an exception to how things are. Indexicalism conceives concepts as being inextricably connected to the position from wh...

Wrote on four cosmopolitical parties and how to forge cosmopolitical coalitions. It closes with a bit on post-nihilist Marxism, sketched in Geist and Ge-Stell out last week in C&H (see post above). The new text is here.

Perspectivism, according to Valentim, hosts two kinds of wisdom. The first has to do with what is known inside the a perspective and the second has to do with the supernatural, xamanic where knowledge is inter-perspective, is about transitions and metamorphic. It is like an empirical knowledge and non-empirical, transcendental knowledge - knowledge inside and knowledge of what makes this inside possible. The transcendental knowledge could involve me being a jaguar, a pig and a human. The formula could be something like this: empirical anthropocentrism and transcendental anthropomorphism. Valentim quotes Tania Stolze Lima in her comparison of the Wari' and the Youdjá. For the Wari', I see a wasp as a wasp and me as human and a wasp sees me as wasp and her as human. For the Youdjá, animals see humans and animals as humans while humans sees animals as animals and humans as humans. But there is a limit for the Youdjá to hold that animals are at their disposal: they know that they t...

 Out in Cosmos and History my paper on the divergence in intelligence and on post-nihilist Marxism.

 Esta é a palestra performance que fiz em fins de agosto, sobre a prioridade da adição sobre a negação. Está aqui. O texto: Não As recusas, as contestações e as  profundidades tântricas da sinceridade A negativo é uma intensidade pronta Peter Handke Engasguei, tive náusea, uma náusea  mansinha que me rasgava de feiúra costura  por costura; era repelente e réptil e  replicante e repentino e reprovava – e o  que mais? Era um Não desses que brotam da  garganta junto com as neissérias, as  estreptococas, as estafilococas e esses  inúmeros outros animais ou espíritos  animais, ou engenhocas, ou microdeuses  pineais, ou pedaços de fúria abandonados  ao léu, como é o Não.
