Lax, 2014 - ongoing
Intervention machine
https://laxproje.tumblr.com/
Lax is a soft machine that produces multiplicities from queer inputs and is tending to denormalise any space with these multiplicities. Lax, taken its name from “Soft Machine” of W. S. Burroughs, means indefinite, scattered, thin, to have a small diarrhea, neglectful, thoughtless, loose and seems like it’s the root of the words paralax, relax etc.
Connotative of a loose mechanics with these meanings; Lax’s process is some kind of “queer-becoming” and like this in general:
- Confronting with queer inputs intentionally or by coincidence
- To quote the things making input queer partially or totally
- To associate instable connections between this and other queer quotes
- Re-appropriation of the connections by loosing their vertexes
- To reiterate this process randomly with a repeating difference
- As indiscriminate thresholds occur between queer multiplicities; to evacuate and release to them the space, to leave them at their origin of quotation being intervented queer multiplicities
