"With the I0-dencies project i was invited to re-think my relation with the city of S‹o Paulo. So, it was an objectivation exercise about some aspects of myself which till that moment was kept disorganized, not reflected by consciousness: I could externalize some questions that worry me about São Paulo and that reflect my situation in this city. These aspects can be condensed in this concept: the excessive contrast between the rich and the poor people who live together under a constant tension, softened by a continuous building of barriers and filters. Those barriers are not material ones all the time. I think that there 's a kind of visual deafening, a sort of urban blindness, an indifferent look towards the ones who are strange and who are kept behind the walls. I tried to trace the structural aspects of this mutual invisibility that is problably based on a destruction of sensitivity for the human condition of the other. yet, the city of SP was not understood as only a scenery for this, but as a materialization, an update of these collective interactions. Then, dealing with the data-base software, i could get in touch with new concepts and ideas, giving new connotations for the other editorÕs contents. The same happened to my ideas about the otherÕs map. This relativisation process gave us the possibility of getting new perspectives and faces from an initial point of view, improving our awareness of the city." there's some pseudo-democratic smell in the air: yesterday the brazilians voted for our bosses. the political marketing worked very well. some thieves are back on top with populist smiles on their faces. sorry man, but i'm pessimistic about our future down here. people here can't see brazil in a global situation (not even the students from the university!). i really think that we need to connect and deal with the forces (global and local) which come to us. we need to understand and realize our own forces in these processes. about my private life: i was finally accepted as an official dweller in the students house. that means that now i have a single room to live! The University of Sao Paulo is not supporting my work as I thought it could do, even my masters stuff (like computer graphics works). About 10-dencies for instance, I cannot type the documents because the pcs are always busy at usp. The tendencies project was becoming a kind of dependencies project to me. So I`ve decided to buy a fucking power pc for me to work. Summarizing: I spent the last two weeks making money in order to make it come true. And it worked (with some luck, of course !). Now i am writing to you from my own fucking power pc II 266, connected to internet from my home at salto city as long as I was not accepted as a dweller at the students house in a legal way (my illegal conditions there - staying in a public living room - make it impossible to stay there all the time). I`ve already downloaded the applet and from now on it`ll be easier to upload all my contents about sao paulo that I`ve collected till now, which are gonna become more visible to you. Sorry, guys, for boring you with these private things, but letting you know that i am trying to do my best makes me feel better. keyword: Apartheid Perhaps we need to make an effort to see what doesn't appear in the computer terminals and which is not the reality of this universe dominated by the newest technologies. The description of this computerized world loses sense when we think about Somalia or in the slums (...). And what tragic is as long as this technological development continuous happening, more social apartheid we will have.
