Resumo:
The thesis problematizes the role of digital media in the (con)formation of contemporary geopolitics, especially with regard to the concepts of sovereignty and emancipation. Understood as a nomic structure, digital media operates as an active agent in the partition of space and in the regulation of fluxes of forces, matter, form and information. Computation and Internet are responsible for the design and conformation both of Earth s physical layer, as well as of the virtual space of the Net, the so-called Cloud. A radical materialism operates between the disintegration of the analogical principle into the digital, through the machinic axioms of protocols, until it reaches the semantical over-codification of the platform. It is only then that the nomos of the cloud assumes its most visible form. This nomos draws a non-Euclidean geometry (i.e., a fractal), one that defies the causal logic and develops new dimensions of World-design. In it, the archive stops functioning as a mere representation of the world, for the very world becomes an archive. The ontological and epistemological levels of analysis of such a nomic order are both conditioned by a political dimension. Digital media weaves a diagram that establishes new regimes of visibility (interface, expression) and enunciation (addressability, content). A diagram before which, to be or to know, either in the realm of Computation in general or on the Internet, means to be subjugated by the idiosyncratic technical-technological a priori at hand. A new form of agency of bodies and signs is implied. New media disintegrates subjective and objective frontiers commonly associated with the sovereign condition traditionally conceived as a trait native to the Nation-State. It does this by instituting a new topology/topography of bodies and agencies in the place of what existed before it. The new mediatic era unfolds the territory in a hyperbolic dimension, overlapping different sovereignties over a specific transmission or circuit. The mediatic channel operates as a substratum over which power might exert itself or be exerted, while, at the same time, forfeiting any human condition and, what is even more, setting aside every subjective presupposition. The thesis poses the question about how to define the sovereign condition in the context of the new mediatic era and the collapse of the Westphalian model of the Nation-State. Connected to the problem regarding sovereignty, the thesis asks how it is possible to establish a (dia)grammatic of emancipation struggles in this context. Following the recent events, it is assumed that the new mediatic era consists of two different crossings. The first one would be the overcoming of the analogical by the digital, while the second would be the transition from the a-signifying bit to the semantics of interfacial and addressable regimes. These two events are consummated in the concept of the platform, understood as a rigid diagram in which an asymmetric relation between user and system takes place. According to this asymmetrical relationship, the user is not capable of accessing the arcanum of the source-code. The entrails of the system are protected from the direct action of an ordinary User. Only after the recognition of this asymmetry, can the concepts of sovereignty and emancipation be adequately analysed. While sovereignty is a priori understood as the condition of that which (human or otherwise) is capable of accessing the potential of the source-code, emancipation in the realm of the new media depends on the revindication of such a sovereign condition.
