well, most agree, what is called “avantgarde” is seen, to resist all kind of repression in society. to resist all definitions and determinations of cultural codes. basically. to make visible, what is not seen yet. the blanks, the invisible, the ignored. to turn the inside out. in search of what really matters. if so, fine. but how to escape a discourse, which was never designed for your body? transgender position continue to fall through all cracks of formalities and language. and positions play off against each other: on the one hand we got daily life. in fact life or death. on the other escapist mental acrobatics, only those whos identity is not challenged yet, can afford. the border between theory and practice, those concerned and those not concerned is established. the binary system and its patterns of norm, normality and abnormality strengthened and stabilized thereby. and you transgress this now: how exactly?
