Informe sobre ectoplasma humano Biopolítica y ficción

Abstract

The narrative lab Roque Larraquy and Ontivero Diego (2014) in Informe sobre ectoplasma animal outlines a philosophical literary artifact (as a chronic, bestiary, photographic recipes, novel, encyclopedic anniversary, nomenclator, case structure or field journal) which reports on the invention of an imaginary science as well as the circulation of a positivist-spirit amalgamated speech. The historical narrative in dialogue with the scientific literature (in a historicalpolitical anchor as accurate as concealed) is one of the main reasons knotting Informe (2014). The operation that we want to underline revolves around the subject of study that failed pseudoscience, that is, the animal nature of ghosts and ghostly apparitions in a threshold that blurs the living from the dead. What comes to light in writing Larraquy is animal ghostly dimension of record (the ectoplasmic photograph or animal ectografía) crossing and tense body boundaries between human and animal, between science and life and within a historiographical record broader, including national science, state and violence. It is rethinking how culture develops, thinks and builds a device (such as configuration space, critical exploration and aesthetic mark) that responds to a historical horizon defined by biopolitics.
