Body Politics and Mental Territory
In the context of today’s technological and industrial advancements, how do our bodies with their past geographic and
historic memories resist the political situations produced by various regimes of power? Is is possible within today’s techno-political context to refer to the psyche and the body’s memory as explored by the likes of Freud or Lacan? Where exactly do the limits of the psyche exist within the domains of machine living? These eleven pieces explore the contemporary subject’s political body in relation to limitations of geography and gender, with an eye towards the impacts of technology on the political body itself.”
