KEYWORDS: Biopolitics, body mapping, morphogenesis, embodiment, digital
culture, performativity
ABSTRACT: Communication technology is a key in the articulation of global
standardisation in late capitalism. The biopolitical paradigm of social control
is shifting towards new forms of technological embeddedness through new
technologies of the body. Logocentric and discrete representations of the body
are a key to the articulation of the standard model of technology and its
constructions of corporeality. In dance and technology and other disciplines
there is a potential to generate technological models that defy the logos and
propose a paradigm open to multiple and changing specificities, going beyond
the postmodern paradigm of performativity and parody into a new realm of
metaformativity as both aesthetic and political paradigm.

Resumen: El artículo propone una revisión de los paradigmas de poder implícito
y biopoder en el tardocapitalismo, y del papel que desempeña en los nuevos
dispositivos biopolíticos la formalización del cuerpo y la comunicación no
verbal. Propone el término metaformatividad para definir una teoría del cuerpo
y la realidad como campo de fuerzas comunicantes, y abre así un horizonte
crítico y productivo que excede al discurso textual de la performatividad. Se
elabora una crítica de diversos esencialismos de la cultura y el arte digital y
se esbozan los potenciales del arte digital y la danza y tecnología para la
elaboración de nuevos territorios de resistencia y especificidad tecnológica y
estética. Por último, se exponen algunos proyectos desarrollados en el marco
del Instituto Reverso.

Abstract: The article proposes a revision of biopolitical paradigms and seeks
to redefine the relations between implicit power, communication technologies
and the non-verbal aspects of communication. A shift of paradigm is proposed
which concentrates on the critique of the implicit relations between technology
and language, redefining communication and the body as metaformative processes,
thus surpassing the textual dimension of the theories of performativity, and
opening up a new critical horizon for politics and aesthetics. It follows with
a critique of logocentric and technopositivist paradigms of digital culture and
reviews the potential site of media art and dance & technology for the
production of specific technological models in a context of resistance to
implicit mechanisms of standardisation. The article concludes with a
description of projects developed in the framework of the Institute Reverso.
