"Grafé" is an "originary" word; its meaning pointed both to drawing and to writing.
During the performance the movement that draws its letters, evoking the union of the
sensible and the intelligible, resounds as a gesture that can activate the aesthetic
experience while it creates itself. The informative way, which on the contrary sticks to
the abstractness of the sign and privileges the quantitative side of giving news,
becomes like "chatting", an impersonal way where the intelligible of meaning vanishes
among the conformism of the dominant ideology.
