Nelson Irsapoullé – Samiro_a B. Stöckli: New Soma, Part 2

Topic /
New Soma: « Desire is not a given truth but a fabricated social field that can be modified under the condition of investing the tools of metaphor and imagination, of poetry and somatic experimental. » Paul B. Preciado
Une écologie nécessaire. A strategy of love and creation. An auto-fictional guidance present dialogue archive for the future. New Soma is an exploration. The quest of 2 allied physical bodies that through links and a connected  mind, intimacy, share radical romanticism of violent cuteness and resist the economic suggestion of love as a product of consumption.
New Soma is about desire as a driving force, pushing to the surface and longing for connection in spite of all learned reason. What are ways that two allied bodies contribute to the communal desire to experience love?

New Soma explores the way of two allied bodies radically committing to the poetical terrorism of finding decolonized love.
