Reading Immanence
The following text opened the conference, “The Concept of Immanence in Philosophy and the Arts”, held in Vienna in May 2016. It is a reader consisting of key passages on immanence by Gilles Deleuze, Baruch de Spinoza, Giorgio Agamben, Henri Bergson, François Laruelle, Antonin Artaud and Friedrich Nietzsche. The reader was put together by Arno Böhler and Elisabeth Schäfer, and a collage of its content arranged by Susanne Valerie Granzer, who read out these text fragments at the start of the conference. Her reading was sporadically interrupted by Alice Lagaay, whose comments served to draw lines of connection between the dense theoretical texts and the performative immanent context in which they were being read and digested—the context of the conference. We present here the readings and their lighthearted—and at times deadly serious—commentary as performed. Readers are invited to imagine and re-enact the live-ness of this event, letting their own comments, questions and musings interrupt the proposed interruptions of reading

Hinterlasse keine Spur
Der Nachwelt ein Zeugnis der eigenen Existenz zu übermitteln, ist ein menschliches Bedürfnis. Allerdings haben unsere Hinterlassenschaften in Form von Umweltverschmutzung schon jetzt ein katastrophales Ausmaß erreicht. Deshalb ist es höchste Zeit, sich mit seinem individuellen Anteil daran auseinanderzusetzen, meint Alice Lagaay
