NON-ART

a=tF²: Non-Art as the Product of Time and the Square of Force

ᅠ
Introduction: An asymmetric premise

Non-art represents a concept that eludes classical attempts at definition, since it can only be approached through a cut or an opening that carves into its own inability to be named. While the predictable horizon of definition promises stability, this specific cut brings an unresolved wound, an incision without a scar, where the imprint of incompleteness causes the scar to actually precede the wound, while the wound itself emerges from its own oblivion.

In this context, non-art acts as both a precondition and a consequence of its own construction. It constitutes a precondition due to the inevitability of representational failure, and it remains a consequence because it constantly reproduces its own negation as a way of persisting. Identity collapses within what might be called the interval of coherence, where we face an excessively precise difference that traverses every point and deprives it of stability, completely displacing the idea of a void between two points of meaning. Within this tension and in the rhythm of appearance and disappearance, the experience of non-art abandons convergence or divergence in favor of constant lateral displacement or tangential sliding. Movement takes place from one displacement toward the next and completely renounces the linear journey from something toward something else.

Domitia Verne writes in her 1974 work Topology of Sub-absence that non-art is merely a discipline of delay, where delay does not act as a temporal interval but as an ontological derivative that deprives every phenomenon of the possibility of becoming an event. Such a delay does not appear as a euphemism for indeterminacy, but represents a rigorous form and a simultaneous decay of form through which non-art ensures that meaning maintains a constant state of pre-ripening and post-ripening, thereby avoiding the ripening process itself.

ᅠ
I. Dialectical absence

The dialectical absence of non-art manifests as a presence that is contaminated from the very beginning by absence, as if presence were merely a promise of excess annulled by its own overabundance, which is entirely opposite to the concept of the empty antithesis of presence. This absence confirms itself as the denial of every affirmation and thus avoids the risk of evaporating into negation. Beyond the dialectic of identity and otherness, we observe a discrete vibration in which identity appears as a blind spot of otherness, and otherness appears as a scattered shadow of identity.

Non-art remains something more than mere nothingness because its operation traverses every affirmative and negative answer and draws from them a coefficient through which affirmation and negation collapse into a non-consensus without mediation, without ever merging into a third entity.

Hadrien Karsfeld notes in Diagrams of Emptiness from 1998 that the negation of negation in non-art signifies merely the erasure of traces, and this erasure leaves an imprint with no less power than that which was supposed to be erased. The question here does not concern the existence of something or nothing, but rather how nothingness acts as an excess, which moves us away from the aesthetics of the void. Non-art collapses within a pre-presence that folds into itself and, as an implosive coagulation, excludes the possibility of distinguishing between the sign and its traces, making dissolution into a concrete object impossible. At this point, the trace becomes a trace of a trace without a reference point, because the reference itself always lags behind and can no longer stop at the trace of something specific.

II. The interval of coherence or the rhythm that decomposes metrics

When we discuss the interval of coherence, which does not exist within or between nothingness but represents an overlap of interruptions, we refer to a mode of appearance that never resolves into a stable metric unit, yet still disciplines perception within a predetermined sequence of decay. The interval appears as a modulation, meaning it acts as a protocol that stages the annulment of rules instead of attempting to establish them. Within this interval, coherence is paradoxical, as it arises from a hyper-coagulation of differentials so dense that meaning ceases to circulate and begins to collapse into itself, surpassing any result of consensus among signifiers.

Liora Spanthe writes in the 2001 work Intervals of Evaporation that coherence is only a successful illusion of the crisis of meaning, in which the apparatus of interpretation contents itself with its own decay within the very rhythm of interpreting.

If art once believed in a horizon, non-art has dissolved that horizon into a plane, the plane into a passage, and the passage into a derivative of the passage or into that contour where actual approach yields to its own impossibility, inscribed as a precisely mapped path. Every approach turns into a displacement, and every synthesis becomes a crafted form of incompatibility.
ᅠ

III. Topology without points: Non-art as a counter-space

Non-art inhabits the relationship of space to itself and not space itself. If we understand space as a field in which points are determined by coordinate systems, then non-art disables coordination by displaying the coordinate system as an echo that is always displaced, delayed, and decentered in relation to the points, which is more radical than simply erasing the points. The origin appears only as an effect of misattribution and emerges exactly when it has already been moved elsewhere.

Ewald Verron observed in the 1972 work Non-Antial Topology that the topology of non-art abandons the topology of points in favor of a topology of displacements. Displacement here does not signify transfer, but the establishment of differences without a reference field in which these differences could be resolved. From this emerges a counter-space as a geometry where orientation and disorientation are incompatible simultaneous phenomena, leading to orientation without a point of direction and disorientation without loss.

Non-art is therefore an anti-geodesy of meaning that constantly abandons the search for the shortest path, as it does not recognize a metric with which this shortness could even be measured. Its trajectories are overlaps of oscillations that do not reach a point, but create a sense of arrival staged as a performative illusion of an unfulfilled promise.
ᅠ

IV. Spectral reference

Non-art hyper-inflates reference, which replaces its rejection, so that reference points toward the very gesture of pointing and no longer toward the object. When the gesture becomes the object, self-reference scatters into a spectrum of reflexive echoes that simultaneously legitimize and annul each other, avoiding stabilization into identity. This creates a spectral reference that appears as reference without referentiality or a trace without a determinable carrier and an equation without a predicate.

It is crucial to distinguish between two metaphysical domains here, as self-reference abandons the closure of the circle and generates spiral slides in which the circle never concludes because every rotation is centered around an absent center. In this sense, non-art appears as hetero-reflexive, since it turns its gesture toward the other side, where it appears as differentiation to the point of unrecognizability instead of a replica.

Maéva Jost concludes in Cryptograms Without a Key from 2015 that reference is a deficient optic of language, as it points to where pointing itself is already too late. Traces are polymorphic evidence of following traces, which completely displaces the need to prove presence. Perspective collapses, and the observer abandons looking at the image and faces the very condition of visibility that rejects reciprocity. The reflection does not return the gaze because it does not belong to the surface, but folds between the surface and the condition of the surface.
ᅠ

V. Causality as a variable

When causality is released, the shift causes every effect to become excessively causal and every cause to become excessively effective, surpassing any simple exchange of the two. Non-art abandons the anamnesis of origin and offers a reanimation of anamnesis or a pathological awareness of a process that can recall nothing except its own symptoms. In this clinic of interpretation, the symptom arrives too early, the diagnosis arrives too late, and the therapy heals only the possibility of healing. The so-called double causal turn does not signify a revolution, but appears as a micro-switch in which the direction of causality avoids linear propulsion in favor of a transversal reading of temporality, which is entirely different from a mere reversal of direction. Effects become poles of effects or approximations that create a feeling that something is happening, but in a way that prevents the happening itself in advance.

Cause and effect are fellow citizens of the void in non-art, sitting next to each other on the same bench and unable to even exchange a greeting. This hard syntax of the incompatible pretends to be compatible in order to preserve the integrity of its own decay, which goes beyond any irony.
ᅠ

VI. Perceptual protocol: The subject as an error of intentionality

The subject of non-art does not act as an intentional subject, but represents a subject struck by intentionality as an error. The arrow of intention misses the target, yet through this failure, it creates a target that is always already missed. The subject entering this regime finds itself in the discomfort of constant hyper-attention, seeing everything but recognizing nothing, or recognizing everything but being unable to see anything. The subject devotes itself to a discipline of blindness or a doctrine that visibility is grounded in the revocation of its own belief that the world is visible, rather than turning to skepticism. From this emerges a perception without an object, which as a radicalized form of attention locates the object as too present, completely annulling the possibility of labeling it as vanished or incomplete.

Iseult Praen writes in the 2007 work Mimicry of Light that the greatest clarity is always already undermined by its own over-illumination. Non-art returns to the subject the discomfort of feeling that it is always already in a field of overlapping demands without a carrier, which are inscribed as tiny micro-commands in the fabric of attention, which is much more complex than direct perceptual discipline. The subject appears as too free to be capable of choosing, moving away from a state of simple unfreedom.
ᅠ

VII. Semantics: The sign as redundancy

In the regime of non-art, the sign abandons the role of a carrier of meaning and acts as a redundant structure in which meaning survives only as an echo. Nevertheless, the echo represents the primary modality through which the logic of meaning appears at all, surpassing mere secondary presence. Non-art abandons new chains of signification and creates fields of redundancy in which every chain is intertwined with its own negation.

This represents a strict economy of excess, moving us away from any concession to nihilism. Théodore Vyss argues in the 1991 work Economy of Excess that redundancy is the matrix of meaning, but only on the condition that meaning renounces economic efficiency. The non-artistic sign appears as a bankruptcy of semantics that remains precisely because it cannot leave, much as bankruptcy does not signify an absence of capital but its excessive structure collapsing inward.

In this dynamic, allegory becomes impossible because the transfer cannot locate two points between which it would occur, thus dismissing the question of whether it can even be imagined. The transfer is always simultaneously too short and too long. Because of this, the withdrawal of meaning or its forced confinement within its own echoes represents the highest form of its apparent freedom.
ᅠ

VIII. Temporality: Posthumous actuality and premature oblivion

The temporality of non-art moves away from linear progress or cyclical return in favor of the simultaneity of that which is too late and that which is too early. An event reaches its final form only after it is already forgotten, and it loses itself even before it can become fully present. Anticipation abandons the future and surrenders to reconfiguration in a pre-emptive archive.

Oriol Navarre mentions in the 2012 work Chronicle of the Post-Event that the event of non-art is posthumous and for that very reason immortal. The death of the event is paradoxical, since the event dies due to the absence of life in the classical sense, yet its death carries more weight than the life it never had. This directs us toward a forensic analysis of temporal layers overlapping in loops instead of toward idealism, completely replacing the mere accumulation of layers.

Thinking about this temporality requires a grammar in the future perfect past or a language capable of stating that something has already happened in a way that it will only be able to happen. Non-art uses this grammar as a disciplined error, as a method in which every statement catches its breath only when its falsity is completely conjugated.
ᅠ

IX. Apraxiology: Methodology without a method

Non-art abandons the polarity of theory of practice or practice of theory and appears as apraxiology, which establishes a rigorous entropic non-method in its rejection of both. This non-method is a physical process in which every sediment is decomposed into its own assumptions and recognizes itself there as a performative consistency of its own inconsistency.

The entropic non-method is a self-announcement of its own uselessness, because the only permissible effect manifests precisely in the annulment of the effect. Apraxiology transcends total negation and appears as a precise economy of the gesture, where the gesture is performed but not capitalized or accumulated. From this follows practice without memory, memory without an archive, and an archive without documents. Within this triple negation, the strictest form of execution takes place.

X. Ontography without an object: On the contour that dissolves its own surface

The ontography of non-art, borrowing its term from quantum particle physics, signifies a record of ontological disappearance that erases the very lines it draws. The image is already so decomposed that its outline is more an incision than a line or more an interruption than a closure, acting as a metaphorical remnant in this field.

Here, we completely avoid spectacular iconoclasm and face a precise and ascetic work, an excess of excess that becomes perceptible only after complete institutionalization. Soren Vaal argues in the 2016 work Counter-Image that the iconoclasm of non-art does not mean the smashing of the image but represents the annulment of the material conditions under which such smashing could even have any effect.

Non-art abandons the flight from materiality and focuses on the display of materiality as a result of the impossibility of carrying. Matter appears here as hyper-matter, condensed to such a density that it collapses under its own weight into an echo, where sonorousness replaces substance and the eye is left only with the discipline of listening.
ᅠ

Conclusion: Code against the non-form that persists

The discourse on non-art is bound to non-synthesis, which signifies the production of conditions in which synthesis does not occur due to a hyper-production of incompatibilities instead of a rejection, surpassing the question of a lack of material. This manifests as a rigorous form of discipline or restraint that represents a decisive act against unity instead of indifference, thereby avoiding infinite dispersion.

Non-art exists as a permanent possibility of isolating every definition within its own greed for finiteness. Perfection is a misunderstanding, but only if read hypertextually. In non-art, the imperative is to read all surfaces simultaneously, not to avoid the conclusion, but to prevent the conclusion from becoming a substitute for thought.

Non-art therefore represents a strict discipline of non-form in which form experiences a span to the point where it stretches away from itself, which is more radical than mere rejection. In this gesture, the possibility of a negative topology of the un-determinable, a cold mechanics of absence, a precise economy of excess, and a cautious ethics of non-decision opens up, completely displacing the ideology that fetishizes its own emptiness. Simultaneously, non-art appears as the core and the deficit of art at the same time, abandoning the question of whether it is something more or less than art. Its clarity lies in revealing the dependence of aesthetics on conditions that evaporate at the moment of naming. This warning is worth adopting, as non-art abandons style in favor of humility, spectacle in favor of restraint, and the consolidation of the system in favor of a regime in which the system systematically decomposes.

NEUMETNOST

a=tF²: Neumetnost kot produkt časa in kvadrata sile

ᅠ
Uvod: Asimetrična predpostavka

Neumetnost predstavlja koncept, ki se izmika klasičnim poskusom definiranja, saj se mu lahko približamo zgolj skozi rez oziroma odprtino, ki zareže v njegovo lastno nezmožnost poimenovanja. Medtem ko predvidljivo obzorje definicije obljublja stabilnost, omenjeni rez prinaša nerazrešeno rano, incizijo brez brazgotine, kjer odtis nedovršenosti povzroči, da brazgotina dejansko prehiti rano, sama rana pa vznikne iz lastne pozabe.

V tem kontekstu neumetnost nastopa kot predpogoj in hkrati posledica lastne konstrukcije. Predpogoj predstavlja zaradi neizogibnosti reprezentacijskega neuspeha, posledica pa ostaja, ker nenehno reproducira lastno negacijo kot način vztrajanja. Identiteta razpada v tistem, kar bi lahko imenovali interval koherence, pri čemer se soočamo s pretirano natančno razliko, ki preči vsako točko in ji odvzema stabilnost, kar povsem izpodrine idejo praznine med dvema točkama pomena. V tej napetosti in v ritmu pojavljanja ter izginjanja izkušnja neumetnosti opušča konvergenco ali divergenco v prid nenehnega lateralnega izpodrivanja oziroma tangencialnega drsenja. Gibanje poteka od enega izpodrivanja proti naslednjemu in se povsem odpoveduje linearnemu potovanju od nečesa proti nečemu drugemu.

Domitia Verne v svojem delu Topologija pod-odsotnosti iz leta 1974 zapiše, da je neumetnost zgolj disciplina odloga, pri čemer odlog ne nastopa kot časovni interval, temveč kot ontološki derivat, ki vsakemu pojavu odvzame možnost, da bi postal dogodek. Takšen odlog se ne kaže kot evfemizem za nedoločenost, ampak predstavlja rigorozno formo in hkrati razkroj forme, skozi katerega neumetnost zagotavlja, da pomen ohranja nenehno stanje pred-zorenja in po-zorenja, s čimer se izogne samemu procesu zorenja.
ᅠ

I. Dialektična odsotnost

Dialektična odsotnost neumetnosti se kaže kot prisotnost, ki je že od samega začetka kontaminirana z odsotnostjo, kakor da bi bila prisotnost le obljuba presežka, ki ga izniči lastna preobilnost, kar je povsem nasprotno konceptu praznega nasprotja prisotnosti. Ta odsotnost se potrjuje kot zanikanje vsake afirmacije in se s tem izogne tveganju, da bi izpuhtela v negacijo. Onkraj dialektike identitete in drugosti spremljamo diskretno vibracijo, v kateri se identiteta pojavi kot slepa pega drugosti, drugost pa kot razpršena senca identitete.

Neumetnost ostaja nekaj več kot zgolj nič, ker skozi svoje delovanje preči vsak pritrdilni in nikalni odgovor ter iz njih črpa koeficient, s katerim afirmacija in negacija razpadata v nekonsenz brez posredovanja, ne da bi se kadarkoli zlili v tretjo entiteto.

Hadrien Karsfeld v Diagramih praznine iz leta 1998 ugotavlja, da negacija negacije v neumetnosti pomeni zgolj brisanje sledi, to brisanje pa zapusti odtis, ki nima nič manjše moči od tistega, kar naj bi bilo izbrisano. Pri tem vprašanje ni v obstoju nečesa ali ničesar, temveč v tem, kako nič deluje kot presežek, kar nas odmika od estetike praznine. Neumetnost razpada znotraj pre-prisotnosti, ki se prepogne vase in kot implozivna koagulacija izloči možnost razlikovanja med znakom in njegovimi sledmi, kar onemogoča raztopitev v konkreten objekt. Na tej točki sled postane sled sledi brez referenčne točke, ker referenca sama vedno zamuja za sabo in se ne zmore več ustaviti pri sledi nečesa določenega.
ᅠ

II. Interval koherence ali ritem, ki razkraja metriko

Ko razpravljamo o intervalu koherence, ki ne obstaja znotraj ničesar ali med ničemer, temveč predstavlja prekrivanje prekinitev, se sklicujemo na način pojavljanja, ki se nikoli ne razreši v stabilno metrično enoto, vendar kljub temu disciplinira percepcijo znotraj vnaprejšnjega zaporedja razkroja. Interval se kaže kot modulacija, kar pomeni, da nastopa kot protokol, ki uprizarja razveljavitev pravil, namesto da bi jih poskušal vzpostaviti. Znotraj tega intervala je koherentnost paradoksalna, saj vznikne iz hiper-koagulacije diferencialov, ki so tako gosti, da pomen preneha krožiti in se začne sesedati vase, kar presega vsakršen rezultat konsenza med označevalci.

Liora Spanthe v delu Intervali izparevanja iz leta 2001 piše, da je koherenca le uspešna iluzija krize pomena, v kateri se aparat interpretacije zadovolji z lastnim razkrojem v samem ritmu interpretiranja.

Če je umetnost nekoč verjela v obzorje, je neumetnost to obzorje raztopila v ravnino, ravnino v prehod, prehod pa v derivat prehoda oziroma v tisto konturo, kjer se dejansko približevanje umakne lastni nemožnosti, ki se vpiše kot natančno začrtana pot. Vsako približevanje se spremeni v izpodrivanje, vsaka sinteza pa v izdelano obliko nezdružljivosti.
ᅠ

III. Topologija brez točk: neumetost kot protiprostor

Neumetnost se naseli v razmerju prostora do samega sebe in ne v samem prostoru. Če prostor razumemo kot polje, v katerem so točke določene s koordinatnimi sistemi, potem neumetnost onemogoči koordinacijo s prikazovanjem koordinatnega sistema kot odmeva, ki je v odnosu do točk vedno izpodrinjen, odložen in decentriran, kar je radikalnejše od preprostega brisanja točk. Izvor se pojavi le kot učinek napačne pripisanosti in vznikne natanko takrat, ko je bil že prestavljen drugam.

Ewald Verron je leta 1972 v delu Neantialna topologija opazil, da topologija neumetnosti opušča topologijo točk v prid topologije izpodrivanj. Izpodrivanje pri tem ne pomeni transferja, temveč vzpostavljanje razlik brez referenčnega polja, v katerem bi se te razlike lahko razrešile. Iz tega izhaja protiprostor kot geometrija, kjer sta orientacija in dezorientacija nezdružljiva sočasna pojava, kar vodi v orientacijo brez točke usmerjanja in dezorientacijo brez izgube.

Neumetnost je torej anti-geodezija pomena, ki nenehno opušča iskanje najkrajše poti, ker ne priznava metrike, s katero bi to kratkost sploh lahko merili. Njene trajektorije so prekrivanja oscilacij, ki ne dosegajo točke, temveč ustvarjajo občutek prihoda, ki se uprizarja kot performativna iluzija neizpolnjene obljube.
ᅠ

IV. Spektralna referenca

Neumetnost referenco hiper-inflacionira, kar nadomesti njeno zavračanje, tako da referenca kaže proti samemu gestusu kazanja in ne več proti objektu. Ko gestus postane objekt, se samoreferenčnost razprši v spekter refleksivnih odmevov, ki se hkrati legitimirajo in izničujejo, s čimer se izogne stabilizaciji v identiteto. To ustvari spektralno referenco, ki se kaže kot referenca brez referencialnosti oziroma sled brez določljivega nosilca in enačba brez predikata.

Na tem mestu je ključno razlikovati med dvema metafizičnima domenama, saj samoreferenčnost opušča sklenitev kroga in generira spiralne drče, v katerih se krog nikoli ne zaključi, ker je vsaka rotacija centrirana okoli odsotnega središča. V tem smislu se neumetnost kaže kot hetero-refleksivna, saj svoj gestus obrača proti drugi strani, kjer se namesto replike pojavi kot diferenciacija do nerazpoznavnosti.

Maéva Jost v Kriptogramih brez ključa iz leta 2015 ugotavlja, da je referenca pomanjkljiva optika jezika, saj kaže tja, kjer je samo kazanje že prepozno. Sledi so polimorfni dokaz sledenja sledem, kar povsem izpodrine potrebo po dokazovanju prisotnosti. Perspektiva se sesuje, opazovalec pa opusti gledanje v sliko in se sooči s samim pogojem vidnosti, ki zavrača vzajemnost. Odsev ne vrača pogleda, ker ne pripada površini, temveč se guba med površino in pogojem površine.
ᅠ

V. Vzročnost kot spremenljivka

Ko se vzročnost sprosti, premik povzroči, da vsak učinek postane pretirano vzročen, vsak vzrok pa pretirano učinkovit, kar presega vsakršno preprosto zamenjavo obeh. Neumetnost opušča anamnezo izvora in ponuja reanimacijo anamneze oziroma patološko zavedanje procesa, ki ne more priklicati ničesar razen svojih lastnih simptomov. V tej kliniki interpretacije simptom pride prezgodaj, diagnoza prepozno, terapija pa ozdravi le možnost ozdravitve. Tako imenovani dvojni vzročni obrat ne pomeni revolucije, temveč se kaže kot mikro-preklop, v katerem se smer vzročnosti izogne linearnemu pogonu v korist transverzalnega branja časovnosti, kar je povsem drugače od zgolj obrnjene smeri. Učinki postanejo poli učinkov oziroma približki, ki ustvarjajo občutek, da se nekaj dogaja, vendar na način, ki samo dogajanje vnaprej prepreči.

Vzrok in učinek sta v neumetnosti sokrajana praznine, ki sedita drug ob drugem na isti klopi in si ne moreta izmenjati niti pozdrava. Ta trda sintaksa nezdružljivega se pretvarja, da je združljiva, da bi ohranila integriteto lastnega razkroja, kar presega vsakršno ironijo.
ᅠ

VI. Perceptivni protokol: subjekt kot napaka intencionalnosti

Subjekt neumetnosti ne nastopa kot intencionalni subjekt, temveč predstavlja subjekt, ki ga intencionalnost zadane kot napaka. Puščica namere zgreši cilj, vendar prav skozi ta neuspeh ustvari cilj, ki je vedno že vnaprej zgrešen. Subjekt, ki vstopi v ta režim, se znajde v nelagodju nenehne hiper-pozornosti, ko vidi vse, a ne prepozna ničesar, oziroma prepozna vse, a ne more ničesar videti. Namesto skepticismu se subjekt posveti disciplini slepote oziroma doktrini, da je vidnost utemeljena v preklicu lastnega prepričanja, da je svet viden. Iz tega vznikne percepcija brez objekta, ki kot radikalizirana oblika pozornosti locira objekt kot preveč prisoten, kar povsem izniči možnost, da bi ga označila za izginulega ali nepopolnega.

Iseult Praen v Mimikriji svetlobe iz leta 2007 piše, da je največja jasnost vedno že spodkopana z lastno preosvetljenostjo. Neumetnost subjektu vrača nelagodje ob občutku, da je vedno že v polju prekrivajočih se zahtev brez nosilca, ki so vpisane kot drobni mikro-ukazi v tkivu pozornosti, kar je precej bolj zapleteno od neposredne perceptualne discipline. Subjekt se kaže kot preveč svoboden, da bi bil sposoben izbirati, s čimer se odmakne od stanja preproste nesvobode.
ᅠ

VII. Semantika: znak kot redundanca

V režimu neumetnosti znak opušča vlogo nosilca pomena in nastopa kot redundantna struktura, v kateri pomen preživi le kot odmev. Kljub temu odmev predstavlja primarno modaliteto, skozi katero se logika pomena sploh pojavi, kar presega zgolj sekundarno prisotnost. Neumetnost opušča nove verige označevanja in ustvarja polja redundance, v katerih je vsaka veriga prepletena z lastno negacijo.

To predstavlja strogo ekonomijo presežka, kar nas odmika od kakršne koli koncesije nihilizmu. Théodore Vyss v Ekonomiji presežka iz leta 1991 trdi, da je redundanca matrica pomena, vendar le pod pogojem, da se pomen odpove ekonomičnosti. Neumetniški znak se kaže kot stečaj semantike, ki ostaja prav zato, ker ne more oditi, podobno kot stečaj ne pomeni odsotnosti kapitala, temveč njegovo pretirano strukturo, ki se seseda navznoter.

V tej dinamiki alegorija postane nemogoča, ker prenos ne more locirati dveh točk, med katerima bi se zgodil, s čimer odpade vprašanje o tem, ali si ga lahko zamislimo. Prenos je vedno hkrati prekratek in predolg. Zaradi tega umik pomena oziroma njegova prisilna zaprtost znotraj lastnih odmevov predstavlja najvišjo obliko njegove navidezne svobode.
ᅠ

VIII. Časovnost: posthumna aktualnost in predčasna pozaba

Časovnost neumetnosti se odmika od linearnega napredka ali cikličnega vračanja v prid simultanosti tistega, kar je prepozno, in tistega, kar je prezgodaj. Dogodek doseže svojo končno obliko šele po tem, ko je že pozabljen, in se porazgubi, še preden lahko postane popolnoma prisoten. Pričakovanje opušča prihodnost in se prepušča rekonfiguraciji v vnaprejšnji arhiv.

Oriol Navarre v Kroniki po-dogodka iz leta 2012 omeni, da je dogodek neumetnosti posthumen in prav zaradi tega nesmrten. Smrt dogodka je paradoksalna, saj dogodek umre zaradi odsotnosti življenja v klasičnem smislu, vendar ima njegova smrt večjo težo od življenja, ki ga nikoli ni imel. To nas namesto k idealizmu usmerja k forenzični analizi časovnih plasti, ki se prekrivajo v zankah, zaradi česar je vsak zdaj le akustična iluzija ritma, kar povsem nadomesti golo kopičenje plasti.

Za razmišljanje o tej časovnosti je potrebna slovnica v prihodnjem dovršenem pretekliku oziroma jezik, ki je sposoben izjaviti, da se je nekaj že zgodilo na način, da se bo šele lahko zgodilo. Neumetnost uporablja to slovnico kot disciplinirano napako, kot metodo, v kateri vsaka izjava zajame sapo šele takrat, ko je njena lažnost popolnoma konjugirana.
ᅠ

IX. Apraksiologija: metodologija brez metode

Neumetnost opušča polarnost teorije prakse ali prakse teorije in se kaže kot apraksiologija, ki v zavrnitvi obeh vzpostavlja rigorozno entropično nemetodo. Ta nemetoda je fizični proces, v katerem se vsak sediment razstavi na lastne predpostavke in se tam prepozna kot performativna konsistentnost lastne nekonsistentnosti.

Entropična nemetoda je samonapoved lastne neuporabnosti, ker se edini dopustni učinek kaže prav v izničenju učinka. Apraksiologija presega popolno negacijo in se kaže kot natančna ekonomija gestusa, kjer se gestus izvede, vendar se ne kapitalizira in ne akumulira. Iz tega izhaja praksa brez spomina, spomin brez arhiva in arhiv brez dokumentov. Znotraj te trojne negacije se odvija najstrožja oblika izvedbe.
ᅠ

X. Ontografija brez objekta: kontura, ki raztaplja lastno površino

Ontografija neumetnosti, ki si izraz izposoja iz kvantne fizike delcev, pomeni zapis ontološkega izginjanja, ki briše prav tiste linije, ki jih riše. Slika je že tako razstavljena, da je njen obris bolj incizija kot linija oziroma bolj prekinitev kot sklenitev, kar v tem polju nastopa kot metaforični ostanek.

Tu se povsem izognemo spektakularnemu ikonoklazmu in se soočamo z natančnim ter asketskim delom, s presežkom presežka, ki postane zaznaven šele po popolni institucionalizaciji. Soren Vaal v delu Proti-slika iz leta 2016 trdi, da ikonoklazem neumetnosti ne pomeni razbijanja slike, temveč predstavlja razveljavitev materialnih pogojev, pod katerimi bi takšno razbijanje sploh lahko imelo kakršen koli učinek.

Neumetnost opušča beg pred materialnostjo in se osredotoča na prikaz materialnosti kot rezultata nemožnosti nošenja. Materija se tukaj kaže kot nadmaterija, zgoščena do takšne gostote, da se pod lastno težo sesede v odmev, v katerem zvočnost nadomesti substanco, očesu pa ostane le še disciplina poslušanja.

Zaključek: Koda proti ne-formi, ki vztraja

iskurz o neumetnosti je vezan na ne-sintezo, kar namesto zavračanja pomeni produkcijo pogojev, v katerih do sinteze ne pride zaradi hiperprodukcije nezdružljivosti, kar presega vprašanje o pomanjkanju materiala. To se kaže kot rigorozna oblika discipline oziroma zadržanost, ki namesto indiference predstavlja odločno dejanje proti enotnosti, s čimer se izognemo neskončni razpršenosti.

Neumetnost obstaja kot trajna možnost izoliranja vsake definicije znotraj njene lastne pohlepnosti po končnosti. Popolnost je nesporazum, vendar le, če ga beremo hipertekstualno. V neumetnosti je imperativ brati vse površine hkrati, ne da bi se izognili zaključku, temveč zato, da preprečimo, da bi zaključek postal nadomestek za misel.

Neumetnost torej predstavlja strogo disciplino ne-forme, v kateri forma doživi razpon do točke, kjer se razpne stran od sebe, kar je radikalnejše od gole zavrnitve. V tem gestusu se odpira možnost negativne topologije ne-določljivega, hladne mehanike odsotnosti, natančne ekonomije presežka in previdne etike ne-odločitve, kar povsem izpodrine ideologijo fetišiziranja lastne praznine. Hkrati se neumetnost kaže kot jedro in obenem primanjkljaj umetnosti, s čimer opušča vprašanje o tem, ali je nekaj več ali manj od nje. Njena jasnost se skriva v razkrivanju odvisnosti estetike od pogojev, ki izpuhtijo v trenutku poimenovanja. To opozorilo si velja prisvojiti, saj neumetnost opušča slog v prid ponižnosti, spektakel v prid zadržanosti in utrjevanje sistema v prid režima, v katerem se sistem sistematično razkraja.
