Ungefüge, 4.3
From 11/08/2022
Online sound piece by Gerald Raunig (philosopher and art theorist, Zurich University of the Arts) in collaboration with Alexander Tuchaček, Isabell Lorey, and Stevphen Shukaitis.
As a text and sound dissemblage, Ungefüge, 4.3 continues the experiment in theoretical form that Gerald Raunig began with his book Ungefüge (transversal texts, 2021) [Dissemblage (Minor Compositions, 2022]. The second volume of Machinic Capitalism and Molecular Revolution formulates Unmunt as the masterlessness of a minor masculinity, immaturity as resistance to normalization, and self-disjoining as a precondition of dissemblage. In this intensive collaboration with Alexander Tuchaček and with the voices of Isabell Lorey and Stevphen Shukaitis, not only has a piece about dissemblage been created, but also a dividual multiplicity that is itself dissemblage, disjointure, subjuncture. “Out of joint, in the joints, lurking for the joints. Then the wind comes in, and with it the windy, Wendy, Windish kin”. (Gerald Raunig, Dissemblage, Minor Compositions, 2022, pp. 240)
