Abstract

In this edition of post (s), we present some essays that somatize notions of performance and performativity. The call for this monographic series is open and not all topics fall under that umbrella. However, these performative and performed essays are a symptom that we would like to go viral and spread in the following editions, as they propose ways of investigating and creating through/from/ with the body, unfolding starchy disciplinary tissues by tradition. These essays open up as toolboxes for thinking about one's identity as performance, for understanding how the files of the invisible, gestures, construct meanings. They speak of the performativity of language, using words as objects, making them mean not so much for their semantic load, but for their sculptural condition. There are also essays that talk about the way in which artifacts influence the performativity of everyday life and essays with incomplete stories, built with the body in motion, with transits that do not end.
