Pandora’s Index

The Museum of the Stealing of Souls
The Museum of the Stealing of Souls
1.
There is a well-known myth according to which indigenous people believe
that when a camera takes a picture of them, it captures a part of them,

Monstruous Flesh
Steven Shaviro
Hardt and Negri tell us that, in postmodern society, “characterized by the dissolution of traditional social bodies,” what we experience instead is “a kind of social flesh, a flesh that is not a body, a flesh that is common, living substance” (2004,190, 192).
