Abstract
PHILOSOPHICAL TOYS AS VECTORS FOR DIAGRAMMATIC CREATION: THE CASE OF THE FRAGMENTED ORCHESTRA
Abstract: The central topic of this essay consists into establishing a relation between two dimensions of formation: the conceptual process of creating philo- sophical toys - that is of reelaborating existing philosophical concepts, mainly deriving from the thought of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, in terms of their potential as ‘operative constructs' - and their parallel redeployment towards the specific problem of analyz- ing a recent transdisciplinary artwork (The Fragmented Orchestra by Jane Grant, John Matthias and Nick Ryan). By means of this strategical shift, theory looses its character of explanation and illustration. Philosophy as toy becomes rather the matter of evaluating the com- plexity of a specific artistic composition in terms of its aesthetic potential. It contributes towards developing meta- stable conditions of mutual resonance between heterogeneous modalities of creation.
Keywords: rigorous analogy, individuation, conjunctive synthesis, neuronal plasticity, art and aesthetics of sound creation
Filosofické hračky jako vektory diagramatické tvorby: případ Fragmentovaného orchestru
Abstrakt: Ústředním motivem této studie je ustavení vztahu mezi dvěma dimenzemi utváření: konceptuálního procesu vytváření filosofických hraček (tj. přepracování existujících filosofic- kých pojmů s ohledem na jejich poten- ciál coby „operativních konstruktů", odvozeného zejm. z myšlení Gillesa Deleuze a Félixe Guattariho) a jejich současného využití pro analýzu nedáv- ného transdisciplinárního uměleckého díla (Fragmentovaného orchestru Jane Grant, Johna Matthiase a Nicka Ryana). Díky tomuto strategickému posunu ztrácí teorie povahu vysvětlení a ilustrace. Filosofie se coby hračka naopak stává způsobem zhodnocení komplexity specifické umělecké kompo- zice z hlediska jejího estetického poten- ciálu. Přispívá k rozvoji metastabilních podmínek vzájemné rezonance mezi heterogenními modalitami tvorby.
