Robert Pfaller: On second worlds and their function for first worlds /// 3rd June 2013
Channel: SkriptaTV
Date: 2013-07-07

In cooperation with the Austrian Cultural forum, Subversive festival continues this years theme "The Utopia of Democracy", bringing one of the leading Austrian philosopher and theoretician of psychoanalysis to hold the lecture on the topics of "Second worlds".

What must we fantasize about in order to live out something else? What fictional worlds must we create in order to realize or maintain some other real world? - Questions like these seem to have tacitly fallen into oblivion. In judging individual lives, postmodern identity politics have suggested that each person is singular, and nothing else. To be forced, in order to be something specific, to also be something else, or at least to carry it within ourselves as a fiction, is hard to imagine in postmodernity. All of these questions will be discussed with noted Austrian philosopher Robert Pfaller.

U suradnji s Austrijskim kulturnim forumom, Subversive Festival nastavlja s ovogodišnjom temom "Utopija demokracije" i dovodi jednog od vodećih austrijskih filozofa teoretičara psihoanalize koji će održati predavanje na temu "Drugih svjetova". 

O čemu moramo maštati da bismo mogli živjeti nešto drugo? Koje fiktivne svjetove moramo stvarati kako bismo ostvarili ili održali neki drugi stvarni svijet? - Pitanja poput ovih izgleda da su pomalo pala u zaborav. U prosudbi invididualnog življenja postmoderne politike identiteta sugerirale su nam da je svaki, svaka i svatko samo jedan, jedna ili jedno i ništa drugo. Da se, kako bismo bili nešto određeno, mora biti i nešto drugo, ili barem to nositi u sebi kao fikciju, teško je zamislivo u postmoderni. O svim tim pitanjima vodit će se rasprava s poznatim austrijskim filozofom Robertom Pfallerom.
