Plastic Materialities: A Workshop with Catherine Malabou (Nov 4-5)
Theory Research Group will have a workshop with Malabou, details can be found here
Patricia Pisters' ''Plasticity and the Neuro-Image''
Pisters' response to What Should We Do with Our Brains? is available here
Catherine Malabou’s work makes a strong and important intervention in (re)connecting the materiality of physics and the immateriality of metaphysics through the concept of plasticity. In the first part of my response I would like to sketch a trajectory of this concept – as it is a “plastic” concept in itself. In doing this I hope to do justice to the radical moves which Malabou’s investigations entail, even if I will only be able to look at the developments of the concept in big steps. The implications of this radical turn might be even bigger than Malabou herself suggests, but that is something for the discussion. In the second part of my response I would like to look at a concrete example of what I call a “neuro-image,” contemporary cinema’s response to, resonance with and reflections on neurological and digital plasticity.
