Dada Gag Law: At the iO

On Friday, September 18th, at 9:30 p.m. in the Kingsbury at the iO Theater, DADA GAG LAW (@dada_gag_law on Instagram) will, for the first time, have a night all to its self for truthful performance art. You may laugh, cry, cringe, or act in an other way. You may and maybe should also remain silent. Well, talking isn't allowed, and neither is writing. Being smart also isn't allowed. You aren't smart, so you might be thinking it's okay to come. But being stupid and smart is the same. Only once your words and every other bad sign of your smartness are dead will we let you squeak and gibber. Please, don't come to this.

Line: "What the 'ark' of power contains at its center is the state of exception – but this is essentially an empty space, in which a human action with no relation to law stands before a norm with no relation to life. The normative aspect of law can thus be obliterated and contradicted with impunity by a governmental violence that – while ignoring international law externally and producing a permanent state of exception internally – nevertheless still claims to be applying the law."
