Sexual spaciality develops itself as a psycho-space always already refering
to traumatic
traces of the body development. The traumatic experience reproduces itself
in
alienated virtual bodies. These bodies might be articulated as human
architecture,
human art, human world (Umwelt), human space (Weltraum) representations,
human world representations (Weltanschauung). These opened spaces come to
light at replacing the proto-space of "almost-faded psychic traces, hidden
from
consciouness and linked to originary repression ( Urverdrangung)" (Bracha).
In between the body and its representation space, time and speed start to
be
formed, deformed and reformed. And this space of tension -- emptied in the
result of
body and its represntation co-origination -- has to be filled up with
bodies which we
can call Golems of Consciousness, that is virtual helpers aimed to help, to
save, to
kill, to destroy. Golems are products of the human evolution. They arrange
stratas of
the psychic apparatus. They arrange the space of desirable. They arrange
the space between
me and the other. They are phantasmatic guards of the "matrixial
borderlines" (Bracha).
The representation of the body is always already one of the human'
Golem works of the reassembling of the partial body objects. This image of
the wholeness,
the image of Human is already a complex spacial work of art. Thus, the
trauma of self-
alienation is the space of the series of Golems, which starts the process
of communication,
the process of signifiers exchange in the re-re-re-opened space of the
imagery. That Thing is
That Golem is That ArtWork is That Sublime is That Unccunny. Das Erhabene
und das
Unheimliche Golems are Matrixial Borderlines Guards coming back in the time
of losing
onself, of ecstasy, of affective dis-orders. The "almost-impossible
encounter between
drive and the aesthetic object" (Bracha) occurs in the epileptic. The
screen of shared
(ideological, ecomonical, retinal) Vision is waving and shifting under the
breath of
aestethique and epileptic Aura. The current concept of time and space is
subject to
affective censure. Golem rises from the grave of Real. Golem of
Con-sciousness
is assembled from "animalistic, industrial, sociological, ecological and
historical organs" (Bracha). Golem hasn't phallos, It represents "moving
from phallic to a matrixial perspective" (Bracha). Golem hasn't holes,
metaphoricaly It could be described as a black holes (Stephen Hawking).
