BARBATO KANAKNo communication. Just presentation.
Barbato Kanak je pozoren na sekundne prebliske, na vedno nova obujanja lepega, globoka ?utenja. Na ?tiri letne ?ase. Na Off. Na Eksperiment. YES. NO. NOMAD je potnik, ki se ne vra?a. BOG JE VELIK. DREVO JE ? E VE?JE.

Materiality of ROR remembers the first inarticulate, mumbling voices, purely
organ sounds emerging from within the body. This memory is littered with events
over psychosocial conditions in time and space. Its binding are the responses of
flesh to the thinking of the machine. Hierarchy of thinking and the machineness
of life are the occupation and struggle of ROR’s primary origins.

I can propose some of my projects, that would be presented as a sort of performances, partly workshops and some even as lectures. My work is a kind of weaving of some knowledge about life (of course) and things through discovering of the relationships that exist among particularities that form a structure that we usually call culture. It is a kind of deconstruction of these (cultural) structures and reconstruction into some new form which is usually an object making movements and producing sounds.
