FLUXLIST: More PoMo Fun

[Allan Revich]

Write an instant ‘postmodern’ essay. Not especially convincing for anybody well-read on the topic, but lots of fun in a fluxus kind of way.   http://www.elsewhere.org/pomo   Allan     Excerpt:   The characteristic theme of Abian’s[11] model of dialectic construction is the difference between class and sexual identity. However, capitalist theory holds that the raison d’etre of the writer is deconstruction, given that Foucault’s analysis of semiotic discourse is valid. The subject is contextualised into a dialectic construction that includes sexuality as a reality. In the works of Stone, a predominant concept is the distinction between figure and ground. Thus, several sublimations concerning capitalist theory may be discovered. The subject is interpolated into a dialectic construction that includes consciousness as a totality. If one examines capitalist theory, one is faced with a choice: either reject dialectic construction or conclude that consensus is a product of the masses. But Lacan promotes the use of semiotic discourse to attack society. Foucault uses the term ‘dialectic construction’ to denote not depatriarchialism per se, but subdepatriarchialism. It could be said that the subject is contextualised into a capitalist theory that includes reality as a reality. Sartreist existentialism states that sexual identity, surprisingly, has significance, but only if consciousness is equal to truth.
