raymond geuss, art and criticism in adorno, outside ethics, 179

I have claimed that Adorno wanted to embed some Kantian themes about the importance and centrality of aesthetic form in a basically Left Hegelian philosophical view: a strictly formalist aesthetics isn't required by the inherent nature and invariant structures of the human cognitive apparatus, but it can be the most appropriate way for art to attain its highest vocation under certain historical circumstances. This doesn't, of course, mean that he wants to get a

raymond geuss, art and criticism in adorno, outside ethics, 168

Works of art for Adorno are inherently useless objects which present an "image" (Bild) of a kind of meaningfulness and freedom which society promises its members but does not provide. The fact that art is both something many people find meaningful-even if it isn't clear what "meaningful" means—and yet something which by most of the standards of everyday life is useless, is already for Adorno a good sign, because it violates the Enlightenment principle of universal functionalism, that is, the principle that everything must be useful for something, and that the meaningful and the functional are inherently connected.

13 Brecht's views but not necessarily his actual theatrical practice, which, Adorno admits, was more sophisticated.

thinking about this more
just want to reiterate the point i made before when we were talking abt this
that basically she's trying to say: other people report sexual attraction when provided the stimulus of another person relatively decontextualized
but i feel like the last part is doing the heavy lifting
there's obviously no true decontextualized point, it's not as if people are attracted pure and simple to bodies in any sort of configuration or presentation
but once you grant some context it's a degree of gradation at that point, or not even that (what would 'a gradation of qualitatively distinct contexts' mean?)
so it's really like: my sexual attraction is most prominent when people are presented in a narrative context, particularly with certain genre-specific features and power dynamics i think it's a case of someone being confused by the way other people talk about their experiences
very similar to the "internal monologue" discussion
i'm thinking of an example

so let's say a society was very oriented around sexual depictions of people who had been slimed
so much so that it's like the dominant and borderline exclusive way
me saying "eh slime girls aren't really my thing" isn't like a meaningful thing tho that's ofc banking on our current intuitions
but the reality is, in that society ofc it would be meaningful and significant to define yourself that way
so like i can see the vision of why it matters to differentiate
but i feel like there's a lot of slippage from that more pragmatic and ironic use of a label and a full-blooded identity, in all its vicissitudes
and that feels like part of the point or even the primary point, which is why i'm psychologically skeptical of the unifying and ordering function is dangerous in the foucaultian sense if the noint i'm trvino to make w the slime

the point i'm trying to make w the slime example is that there's no transcendental existing types to fit into, which is obvious from our current social vantage point, but it may be more difficult for relations within sexual hegemony. my attitude is to distance myself from identity labels that hypostasize these contingencies. honestly im even skeptical of even constructing ideal types that give abstraction to move within (edited)
it's so ripe for ideology
in all honesty it feels like a gesture at radical escape that is enmeshed in identical technologies
choking while masticating theoretical absurdities

i searched ur profile for alt text and found this gem

@kasey.cafe i see you liking this shit but we both know you’re a lost cause

that’s what alt text is for! if only there was a field for it without an associated embed…


quote posts are like footnotes, and i like writing footnotes more than writing the text itself

they’re also like samples and i like recontextualizing more than composing

having another manage your authenticity is playful and pleasant if you regard the concept as at best a subordinate virtue, if one at all

hehe yea i almost put “leftists” in quotes because i really meant “people who self-describe as leftist”. just vibes and a lot of huff and puff. i like the inclusion of progressive in the taxonomy :)


my map of the positions is that liberals care about billionaires in a technocratic inequality sense, leftists moralize billionaires, and people with good politics don’t directly talk much about billionaires at all
