Dialogic

"A schizophrenic out for a walk is a better model than a neurotic laying on the analyst's couch. A breath of fresh air, a relationship with the outside world." Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, Anti-Oedipus (1972)

About Me

Michael Benton: Sprouted San Diego-CA. Interpellated through Midwest universities. Working the borderline South. Searching for viable alternatives. Interested in indymedia, revolutionary knowledge, radical art/music/fictions, food politics and resistance cultures. Dialogic seeks to give expression to the absurdity of monologic thinking. We celebrate the wondrous chaotic creativity of relational thinking, polylogical discourse, polyamorous sexuality and pantheistic belief. Dialogic is the revolution of the senses, freedom of expression, the virus that will eat the system from the inside out. Dialogic is a catalyzing enteran that seeks to alter the corrupt system through pirated words and passionate responses. Dialogic operates in the margins of mutated meanings, seeking a new way of being, becoming, understanding and knowing. Dialogic is the monstrous result of a system that eats its young. We are the Multitude!!!
