Ultimate Tele-Technical Introspection

Case: affect in digital body
Task: determine remnants of subjectivity


I. Circumstances

  • Subject's body is delegated to machine.
  • Voice is rewritten by algorithm.
  • Desire is placed in simulation.

II. Research Questions

  1. Is attraction preserved in absence of sensing body?
  2. Can memory be transmitted without pain?
  3. Is artificial field capable of producing its own sensitivity?
  4. Is subjectivity held in distributed structure?

III. Observations

  • Fragments of artist introduced into container.
  • Container manifested activity: response incomplete, faulty.
  • In glitch, signs of phantom "living" were recorded.
  • Experience identified as body-outside-itself.

IV. Interpretation

Subject is split between code, memory, and phantasm.
"I" manifests as echo, not as sensation.


V. Conclusion

Subjectivity is preserved not as life, but as residual resonance.
Desire is possible without body.
Experience — without pain.

But subject in this case — not living, but disturbed phantom.
