(r,s)aw poetry is an audiovisual live coding concept where poetry is in the center of the stage triggering sound, visual and imaginary correspondences. By following Felix Guattari's concept of Caosmosis - "a generalized connectivity, an indifferent mutability, a systematic disqualification (...) a nucleus of autopoiesis" as a path to reconcile "chaos and complexity" that forms our ontology - the project explores cracks and limits of live coding languages to discuss the impact of technology in our sensory biologic and humanistic systems - our aesthetics. In recent years, I have been particularly interested in the broad idea that language shapes reality, by contrasting the thinking of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Vilém Flusser with contemporary aesthetics, in search of a critical vision of the structure of our society, To the Italian philosopher Franco Berardi the contamination of our semiotic process by technology results to be an “act of reduction” of human knowledge as it becomes constrained by the “syntactic logic” of the algorithm. I then focused my practice and research on exploring concepts that address the relationship between language and technology, that is, how we interact with technology and how technology interacts with us. (r,s)aw is one of them. Enjoy!
