Yvette,
You are parasite yrself, bcuz yr not hand-coding yr p5 programs, but yr using open source scripts. But determined by the interests of hobbyist p5 coder culture, determined by reas's interest in swiss modernist ds9 pedagogy of armin hoffman, and abstract generative art.

Which connects out into the world, but not necessarily driven by lamprey being.

Lampreys without organs. So...

How would yr image modulation processes change with a carnivore subject?



Laurelle:
Thinking w immanence, not just about it. Thinking is doing. 

Doing is also philosophical. 

Photo-fiction: The photo auto-renders its own processes. Immanentizes photography.

Batailles - formless - deforming -- the power of foem to self-deform.

1. The "non-" as withdrawal. 
Malarky/smith on laurelle. 

Nigel thrift - hybrid genre o/ non-representation
Harrison/anderson - events

2. Barthes - fractal thinking. Small, granular thinking, liminal space. 

3. Laurelle - photo fiction. The force of thought. Aesthetics and philosophy on the same plane. 

1 conference was about process - in media res. 

To start from zero. Not neutral. Instead, active intense states.
