The axe and the sickle were found at Svyniachka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are all given to each other as objects. This seems like what Graham Harman meant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state of freedom means atomization, dispersal of our community, the \u201cwe\u201d that is ours. The state of war condenses \u201cwe\u201d, bringing it closer to homogeneity. \u201cWe\u201d are brought together by an attribute because of which we are exterminated. And this attribute becomes the basis for our counteraction. Resistance is subjective. It is carried out on behalf of someone or something (a collective identity, a chosen or agreed upon). Strength is objective. It is built by bones, trees, concrete structures, routine habits, social relations that are not fixed by formal contracts, soil, air. In times of war, bodies, intonations, habits, and ways of thinking change. There is a possibility that bones and organs could become mixed with glass and concrete in seconds. The rapidly changing situation creates new and new traps for conformist solutions. Thought resets its relationship with the idea of the future. The body experiences continuous infusions of adrenaline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dignity can also be found in an indoor Atlas. Support the walls, hold the ceiling. Being in a state of resilient strength can look like inviolability. The main thing is not to overuse the phrase \u201ccultural front\u201d and to remember where the actual frontline is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A museum is about \u201cmaking war history\u201d in real time. A possibility of a museum that preserves peripheral narratives. Peripheral lives. At the same time, a museum is a court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remembered that German person who called in the first week after the 24th, hinting at \u201cthe red lines\u201d and advising to switch to guerilla fighting as soon as possible in order not to take weapons from the USA. Well, to hell with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matter thinks in strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
