<div style="margin:1em 0;font-size: 13px;color:#000 !important;line-height: 23px;">
<p>A conundrum. In order to speak my mind, do I necessarily need to speak against another? The dialectic is an historical movement of difference that derives meaning through a teleology that proceeds not unlike a musical composition, arranged towards the inevitable finale.</p>
<p>I’ve always found credence in Bakhtin’s concept of the “monologic utterance,” a type of discourse he attributed to poetic didacticism. I asked a friend of mine, “What happened to ‘harmony’?” “You only talk about harmony when you aren’t in control.”</p>
<p>The narrative of modernity, what the hell is it? Is it supposed to be a preordained series, some Pilgrim’s Progress? Or is it an eternal return of the same, a late-to-the-appointment repetition by one subject of an Other who, having arrived there earlier, decided to write the first map? Or is it post-modernity now, and we are all waiting with baited breath to see the next move?</p>
<p>Reality shows reveal their difference from conventionally scripted programs in the way the players gather in ever-changing, huddling networks, always strategizing. They are like hyper-self-conscious theorists of everyday life.</p>
