The Neoist is determined by her alleged deficiency of an economic pursuit, but in turn occupies a hybrid function as both groom and bride, clitoris and penis-tip, prince and princess. Lacking a stable identity , the Neoist defines her own narrative course, starting with her symbolic birth and ending with her symbolic defloration. This is the most obvious ambiguity in Neoism . She stays a lack, a non-person, dependent on the machine that is both her wish machine and her virgin machine. When the prince marries the princess, the Neoist marries and deflowers herself.
Text is an agent of control.
Just on the contrary, the text of Neoism is applied hegemony, accumulated power in the space of an eternal reading-writing. Being subject to its writing, the hybrid body of the Neoist dissolves in commodification and fetishization. An ageless and omnipresent reader, the Neoist inscribes textual order into an alphabetical territory. Neoism turns the 'private' into the 'public' and creates a state of confusion in the temporal-spatial gap between writing and reading. Since confusion is necessary to challenge the reader's interest, it also challenges the Neoist's identity .
