Falling must have seemed intriguing for them as something in its pure eventfulness that can boast a truly irreversible time lapse, just as Alan Kaprow would argue concerning a Happening -- it is not ...portable in space and is not reproducible in time. The suspension between resistance and letting go made this small action interesting enough to make it an artistic event in itself.
V prispevku želim skozi deleuzovsko filmsko teorijo poiskati način, kako gledati in doživljati »nizek« žanr feministične pornografije na način, ki ni moralističen in žanru vnaša legitimnost. Ob ...primerih kratkih filmov iz švedske serije kratkih filmov Umazani dnevniki (Dirty diaries, 2009) producentke Mie Engberg revidiram zgodnjo psihoanalitično feministično filmsko teorijo in namesto analitične distance »novo podobo gledanja« mislim s pojmi bližine in dotika. Ne podajam paradigmatskih primerov feministične pornografije – primeri kratkih pornografskih filmov iz omenjene zbirke so izjemno raznoliki, a tu ne gre za liberalno-tržno načelo »za vsakogar nekaj«. Menim, da jih je pomembno gledati skupaj, in to zato, ker nas njihove linije pobega lahko potisnejo k novim antiojdipskim možnostim užitka onkraj spolne razlike.
In the article, I tackle the »low« movie genre of feminist pornography through deleuzian film theory in a way that legitimises and affirms its viewing. By considering Swedish producer Mia Engberg’s ...collection of short films Dirty Diaries (2009), I revise the early psychoanalytic feminist film theory and try to dismiss its analytic distance and replace it with the »new image of viewing«, which is based on proximity and touch. I do not attempt to find a paradigmatic feminist pornographic film; instead, I embrace the diversity. But this is not a further hijacking of the affects to create ever new niche markets. By viewing them together, one can find new lines of flight towards anti-oedipal possibilities of pleasure beyond sexual difference.
