Interesting article w Lepecki on co-imagination

http://revistaarta.ro/en/the-power-of-co-in-contemporary-dance/

it really moves-with a lot of the notions that Brian Massumi's text was working through;
questions around creativity, excess, for example, co-imagination being in the world: "co-imagination must always be affirmed as operating beyond (or besides) the notion of the subject. This is why I insist on the “co-“, to emphasize it is always intersubjective, transindividual, or better still: totally impersonal. And it also operates beyond any accountability of the senses (therefore making it be about a logic of sensation to use Deleuze’s expression)."
or non-sensual perception as: "affects are expressed and transmitted in ways that completely bypass visual macro-perceptions; affects and sensations arrive to us faster than the eye can process. And there are also elements that are absolutely choreographic and yet absolutely non-visual.  Including how specific dance works give themselves to full visibility only because they are directly addressing other works, artists, or events that are truly not there, but their not being there is what nevertheless grounds the possibility of that particular work to exist – now."(similar to the Kanizsa triangle)
and so on.

interesting read, also for his move from phenomenology towards process philosophy in the previous years (although still with reminiscents of subjectivity and linear time:) and for the fact that this discourse is happening in Bucharest: awesome
