No.oN is a piece that started by acknowledging a « no » !
However, instead of searching why we refuse what oppresses us, or an alternative to that oppression, I wanted to explore the refusal itself. It seemed to me as an ill-defined signal : « I cannot do that, my body does not want ». Moreover it implicitly revealed a facet of the body, the one that says no : a facet that arises when it does not follow the onward marches imposed to it, when it does not digest, when it stubbles, when it stutters. With that no, the body does not display an anomaly, but on the contrary a very own language, an expression of negation that is always coupled and intertwined with its most celebrated opposite : the flow, the uninterrupted onward movement, the streaming. That very own language is a language of rhythms. What flows (on), and what interrupts the flow (no) form a couple that unfolds and punctuates time.

This rhythmical logic of punctuation has delineates the writing of the poem and the sound composition of No.oN. Its phrasing is marked by the couple of phonemes « no » and « on », the force that refuses/blocks and the one that flows/prompts to action, and develops into a streaming of sentences. But performing a poem implies for me much more than its encounter with my voice. It is immediately entangled into a body, a space, a dispositive. In No.oN, I keep on researching what is a body that says, and how the rhythm of a body not only produces an expression, but also reconfigures language and meaning. If there is an ethics of saying just what I mean, the « body that says no » re-articulates the expressions of our most fragile hesitations just as much as to our collective and individual possibilities of resistance.
