Messy Thoughts and Hypersubjectivity:

[cambiar a Español 🇦🇷]

The field of art, and in this case, the system of critical analysis is in a state of "objective" congestion. Both on the academic front and on the watch that precedes the popular voice, there is an incessant desire for self-satisfaction in the search and fossilization of meaning. It is easy to think about the objectivity of an argument when the postulator is its originator. We come face to face with many god-authors and interpretations of the text as a function of the reader in his search for the true meaning of the critical focus, without realizing that the totality of that focus is lost in the subjectivity that surrounds us. Even the examination of words in critical production becomes a point of discussion in its interpretive variability, the word Art becomes itself a state that assumes certain differentiations in the context of its use, where sometimes the meaning can be implicit. or explicit, without intention or with intention. The clause of cold steel that holds with an iron fist the structure that contains the piece of art of the academic pragmatist, the form of a fascination with the tradition of the deployment of technique of a public diluted in the premise of its difficulty, the scope of a significant indirect rhizome to his unconscious psychology presenting itself as an alteration of the meaning of a surrealist artist. We can only talk about one thing, which becomes abstract to the word art, and assume that its interpretation is the same that we link with our communicative concept. We assume a stance where the interpreter is destined to find meaning and that his meaning has to become the fossilized meaning of the structure that defines the word art, in the same way.

Thus, to talk about art we have to take a step back, an abstract that represents it in a clearer grouping. Medium, is its precision. All art is a medium, but not all medium is an art, because the word art is a diffuse production of a set of ingenuities in conflict between their fossils and their fossilized meanings. The medium is self-explanatory, its meaning is in its name, it is the method (medium) by which communication is presented. In the same way, the use of certain words must be changed to achieve a better understanding of this text. First of all, the person who consumes the medium is called the consumer, but the word consumption assumes that there is something that is consumed. This idea, that the medium is consumed and then all meaning is evaporated into the ether beyond the consumer's mind, is a delusion of our penchant for pseudo-objective analysis. The word that should be used is explorer, since the way in which one interacts with the medium is a type of exploration between it and the medium, in an interaction where meaning is derived through search and interpretation using as a base the figure of the mind; but that word 'explorer' is very fleeting and gets lost in the romanticism of the metaphor, it is better to refer to the explorer as User. The user uses the medium, in the same way that he uses a hammer to drive a nail. If the word art is out of its place, we find ourselves with a lack of a word to define the artist. Creative is the best way to say it, since its action is to create. Now that we can illustrate a user, a medium, and the creative, the other terms will be defined as the idea is examined.

In the first case, the user approaches the medium and begins to use it. The medium has a communication objective, in it there is a meaning, or it is better to say there is a body that contains the possibility of a meaning. If the body is not used by the user, this meaning does not exist, it is only because the user exists that there can be a meaning. One can bring to the fore the question of the author of the medium, its creative: Even if the user does not exist, the creative can know the meaning! —It may be the thought, but this is a misunderstanding of the form of meaning. The meaning in the mind of the creative is simply that: an idea is not exactly a string of letters that form a word, it can be something that is difficult to represent as such, it is there that a representation is made in a set that corresponds to In a logical way, we will name this compound as Matter. Matter is not the body of the medium, since it is only that unconscious interpretive compound that gives meaning to the communicative desire; the medium body is matter being molded into a form by which —through logical sense— we can find meaning, but not necessarily the meaning or matter of the creative, simply a logical derivative of it that becomes our own matter. Thus, the meaning is lost to the creative himself, since he only knows the logical presentation of it: the matter and the way in which it was captured in the body of the medium.

Continuing with our case, once the user begins to use the medium, he encounters the body and creates a relationship with it. This exploration relationship has a psychological basis, where the user connects with elements, which allows them to feel in different intensities depending on their level of connection. This connection, it is important to note, is not only identification with an element based on his culture or a specific factor that can be targeted, but it is the totality of his psychological state that defines his identity and present. Of course, this state also includes your creative knowledge and the importance you give to your word. This relationship creates a context of incorporation of the body, that is, a methodology by which it is felt and understood, meaning is created. This context can be defined through a spectrum that alters throughout the incorporation of the body, Granular ←→ Homogeneous.

Contrary to the idea that the relationship between the "reader" and the "text" is defined by an Effervescent ←→ Aesthetic spectrum, where the reason behind the medium itself is lost out of sight —the objective of the medium is always its communication—, the granularity with the relationship of a medium contemplates its form and detail while maintaining the structure that implies its own reason: where the analysis itself is the reason, since the analysis brings the meaning. The formation of aesthetic reading and its practical utility is simply a result of a pedagogical element where one tries to infer a result that is considered beneficial to a student, or in any case, in a social aspect —the citizen and his culture. An analysis that brings the form and aesthetics to the fore, without taking into consideration its practical use is not the result of its reading method but of the form that the medium takes in the relationship with its user, and the same can be said of the analysis of an academic paper and an effervescent reading. As the user explores the body of the medium, he or she finds himself or herself fascinated and pushed into a type of analysis based on context. This context is modified as a greater percentage of the body is used. This is why poetry brings to the fore an aesthetic reading —because the body of its medium contains within itself, embodied in it, the creative's matter using those aspects of the "textual" medium— but it can still become more effervescent depending on the context, since its effervescence or aesthetics is only a product of the user's psychology encountering the matter within the body and adding it (and relating it) to the context. It is important to note that the preconceived notion of a medium can push us into a certain type of analysis, that is, it becomes part of the context, since it is part of our psychological state.

Granularity is then not what detail is attended to, but the cognition of the detail itself. A baby's analysis of a medium, say, a song, begins with his interpretation of sounds without regard to the details of its form or lyrics. The baby's knowledge, the context of his analysis, brings to the fore a more homogeneous use: that is, where the whole body is more unified into a whole without being divided by abstract categorizations. An adult's analysis of the same song may—or may not, since granularity is a factor that can be determined in advance of the act, for example, the song may be heard in the background while doing another activity—be more granular, that is, pay greater attention to the details that make up the medium. The field that determines our granular capacity is our ability to discern these abstract divisions. A review of an apple may simply be the apple, or we may understand each "element" (abstract characterization that divides it) of the apple and narrow our analysis as such to each micropoint. This is the important part of granularity. An analysis with greater granularity is not necessarily a greater understanding of the medium. Our understanding of the medium is simply the exploration of it. If we understand the medium as a whole, as the analysis becomes more granular, that whole is divided into decimal values. This granularity will serve us when forming the material, that is, the idea in logic, and then in the process of creating the body of the medium, but it is not necessarily a state of greater or lesser understanding of the body.

Like the effervescent and aesthetic illusion, granularity is influenced by the body, as in our analysis we can find that our psychology is connected in different intensities to different parts of the body. That is, we can, within the same body, focus on a set of particular details and alter the context. In the same way, granularity is also a preconception and can be part of the user's psychology before using the medium, either due to information about the medium (such as other analyses), or due to the way in which the user approaches the medium.

Following the case of the user and his medium, once he psychologically connects to the body and explores it, using the medium, forming a context of granularity, and ends up —regardless of his position in the use of the totality of the medium— with a meaning. Analysis is the taking of that meaning, which can be a complex emotion or a set of information in chaos, and it is converted into matter while being shaped to logic, it is then that the user becomes creative and produces a body of that matter in a medium (including oral communication). To say that, for example, the student simply "understands something" and says it, is to ignore the fact that he has to find a method by which to convert his emotions into a logical context and then to translate that logic into a body that can create meaning. This realization is metaphysical, because the user became creative, in the same way that the totality of being becomes a medium, everything that is, is a body; We find the image that we see and in the body of the medium (the image) that our eye sees we carry out the process of understanding, the granularity of our analysis allows us to form differentiations such as earth and sky. It is quite obvious that if we have to talk about understanding, understanding quickly has to become a metaphysical realization, saying "it is only literature or art that we can understand" is a mistake in understanding the analysis, one does not simply analyze the work of art or a product, analysis is the method by which we understand reality. It is for this reason that the inspiration of the creative can be both the work and reality, because in the axis of meaning, both emerge simultaneously: Reality is a medium and therefore communicates in meaning, we explore its body, we create a context of more or less granular appearance and through this meaning emerges. The same meaning that we can use to create and to communicate, the human being is explicitly communicative because the reality around him is also.

Trying to bring objective matter, objective analysis, to the fore is then not a loss of meaning, but merely a futile action to its own subjectivity. The analysis itself is going to become subjective the moment its medium is used. It is for this reason that we have to try not only to move away from objectivity, but to get as close to subjectivity as possible. An analysis that does not only take into consideration the user, but brings the user as its primary form and uses the medium and its body simply in the context of carrying out an exploration of the user itself or a meaning that the user materializes in such a way that the user can find and understand more about his own being and therefore more about the way he interprets the world around him. We conclude in this way, with hypersubjective analysis, where the medium simply becomes something that is used in relation to the idea of ​​its user, where the user does not sublimate himself to the medium and consume it. Whether by dividing the body into fragments to be explored individually, as part of the same medium but with a new context that separates it from itself, or in a homogeneous totality that links it to another medium. It is very likely that the form that this analysis will take will be the same as that of surrealism; since both have an emphasis on the unconscious of the creative, the place where the idea is created and therefore the closest place to its matter; or it can become self-contemplative, where the creative becomes a character in his own analysis. This is the only way to get away from the extremism of objectivity that congests the artistic field, and in the same way, the society of interpretation and analysis.
