To reduced radically. I have danced as if to put myself to the limit of “poorness.” I have danced with pulling in trac the lines of "outside," and I have danced with radically putting the lines of traveling, wandering, and exile on my body. I copulate a breath with another breath, and then violently draw multiple breaths. I choke on it. I stifle myself and to be white silence that is not dance. (In my breath, there is always other breath. In my thinking, there is always other thinking, and i

Nijinsky thought he was God And he wanted to kill God Ko Murobushi From March 12th 1889 to April 8th 1950, Vaslav Nijinsky crossed through 21941 midnights. From the first wailings till the last breath, they rhythmed the continuity of time and toppled it from one date to another.

So we come to the question of why the taboos of incest and parricide are absolute meanings. What we know about origin. The word that was the beginning i

When he realized that the concept of “I” was collapsing, Shuji Terayama realized that Tatsumi Hijikata and Tadeusz Cantor only regarded the human body as “just a bag full of blood.” Around the same time, Michel Foucault announced the end of modern humans, and humankind first saw an image of the Earth in outer space taken from Apollo 8. If it had been overstated that anthropocentrism was over, then it was a time when it began to be seen with suspicion. It was also the time when Ko Murobushi not

Giorgio Agamben, in Homo Sacer, focuses on the difference between the two words for life in ancient Greece: zoē and bios. Zoē refers to the fact of being alive―bare and indistinguishable from other animals. Although Agamben does not use the term so openly, it would not be wrong to say that it refers to the life of a laborer as a slave. Bios, on the other hand, means cultural life―the life of a polis citizen with political awareness. Ancient Greek democracy actually relied on the hierarchy betwee
