The first transmission from ARIA brings a talk by Florin Flueras about Unsorcery, a concept and practice exploring ways of sorcery that can eventually surpass or undo some of the contemporary realities and subjectivities. Unsorcery was an environment created by Alina Popa and Florin Flueras for developing practices, texts, and performances around the concepts: Life Programing, Artworlds, Second Body, Dead Thinking, Eternal Feeding, Black Hyperbox, and End Dream.
Florin Flueras’s work expands into spheres of politics, philosophy, spirituality, health care, media, education, and literature – affecting conventions and certainties, producing performative meetings between art and its outside. His writing is part of his works, and his works part of his writings. Learn more: https://www.fflueras.ro/p/florin-flueras.html
