The Collective Gaze – Notes from the Land of the Independents

A mash-up conversation* between Răzvan Anton and Mihai Iepure-Górski

Abstract

All is well, all is outside of time. And you tend to forget, you forget that you have to start over every year. That’s why it’s irrelevant, whatever I’d say now, I really have no reason to complain, do I?

It’s a matter of fiction, everything that’s going on here doesn’t really exist. It’s not sustainable, it’s not real and it actually might do more harm than good… that such space even exists or that it ever existed. It leaves the impression that things are possible… that such things are real, that we are able to achieve them… no, we aren’t. There is nothing that makes it possible for us to be able to achieve such things since there aren’t any conditions for us to even be. It’s a matter of… some coincidence… Some people, like in a game of pick and choose, took us and put us here and let us deal with it… and we had no choice but to do our best and make something out of it. Let’s give it a shot, right? Still it’s not, it really isn’t real, this space was never real and once we step out and lock that gate, it will all disappear as if it never existed.
