VOTING, BOOTH http://www.alansondheim.org/telling07.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/telling08.jpg does this really have a chance is it really the possibility of making a connection here between my voice and this machine in spite of or in relationship to the fact that the two of them are highly disparut the machine is now local. The machine is now local which means that my voice is going directly into the device on my hand no longer connected to the rest of the world or the internet. So that then I have to make a connection I have to go online from this Linux system to another Linux system in order to upload the document so this then is on the order of a tool it's on the order of a speaking device connected to me which might be audible to someone in the room but might not be audible over the wires to anyone else it's local in that sense it reflects a low cal and reflects a doe masala habitus habitus. So given the Habit us that's reflected here this is again on the order of just something that is intimate and that is not connected in any way by a skein or network. Now when I am done speaking I will be able to upload this to a similar system in New York City and that will constitute the first stage of the network. Of dissemination at that point but just a local file transferred from my machine to a local machine in New York City in fact in the lower part of Manhattan. After that then I will be able to upload that operate upon that and then sent it out and disseminate it if it seems to be of interest to anyone. I keep thinking of this because of the vote that were voting which is a very intimate act on one hand and act on in the booth or done by mail. If it's done in the booth of course the curtains are closed and it's almost a form of a primal seen in the sense that it's productive. But it's a different thing it's a different thing once it's released from the vote it becomes one of a number of identical files which simply have a series of choices already confirmed where is in speaking here it's nothing like that at the end of the Sea of the voting. The intimacy of the voting apparatus allows us to recognize the power that contains within Democratic or other institutions. The idea is what you are doing you are doing in private it could be masturbation it could be fucking it could be an intimate conversation that leads nowhere or that results in sorrow or great joy. But the vote behind the curtains behind another words to skirts of the trousers beneath the sheets and something else again. It might be the last Refuge of a kind of operation on the very private and personal level against fascism. I'm not sure of any of this. And it started with several hours necessary to set this up on this machine in order that it doesn't reproduce voting but in fact and thinking through a kind of localized pain Dash not the pictures on the screen or not the lure or the addiction how - yes but instead of the ability of the screen to literally reflect and holds firm old thought the voice that is speaking at the moment. It says is the clouds of the sky descended reflected in the mirror held in my hand. Those clouds in would be both femoral and present and not present for very long. Just as when my voice goes out here let me nothing left to say.now I speak again and this is the second part I feel that it's wrong of me that it's delay or a kind of parasitic bypass to talk so abstractly when in fact what I'm holding in my hand is a rubberized object with more computing power than probably the entire world had say a century ago. not only that but because this we produces the voice as accurately as it does it seems almost as if one is talking not into a recording apparatus because it's doesn't hold the voice fast but into through intimacy the ear of a friend whispering in the gallery or theater. archeology: "reflects a local and reflux a doe masala habit s H a B I T us. So given the habit us that's reflected here this is again on the order of just something that is intimate and that is not connected and anyway bias gain or a network. Now when I am done speaking I will be able to upload this to a similar system in York City and that will cost the tooth the first stage of the network not a December nation at that point but just a local file transferred from my machine to a local machine in New York City in fact in the lower part of Manhattan. After that then I will be able to upload that operated pain that and then sent it out and the summer dated if it seems to be adventurous to anyone.
