On the Wandering Cephalophore: Stiegler and Serres's Tête-à-Tête.
The motivation for this experimental writing arose from encounters with sculptures during dérive exercises in various cities in 2022 and 2023. A profound experience in Argentina transformed my aesthetic sense into a political one (aisthēsis, the mattering of sensation), leading me to explore the pla...

A profound experience in Argentina transformed my aesthetic sense into a political one (aisthēsis, the mattering of sensation), leading me to explore the plastico-pedagogical uses of sculpture. I began to wonder how urban wandering can mould subjectivity and how the city can become a plastic canvas for philosophical thought. Inspired by Michel Serres's Thumbelina (or Petite Poucette, as it appears in the French edition) and Bernard Stiegler's ideas, I reflected on smart cities, artificial intelligence, and the therapeutic use of technology during these wanderings. Through Félix Guattari's interpretation of "modelling clay," I argue that the urban milieu can reshape subjectivity in both poisonous and curative ways. My thought experiment reconsidered the practice of psychogeography as a way in which to transform the smart city into a subjective city. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of University of Toronto Quarterly is the property of University of Toronto Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
