vis-a-vis verification
Performance with Sarah Niecke
The process of “vis-a-vis verification” is fundamentally concerned
with the way in which relationships of trust are established within a system.
For this, it is necessary that a real social interaction takes place
between an already verified person and a person newly added to the system;
that is, both individuals stand “vis-a-vis,” face to face with one another,
and perform a specific action.
Not all individuals can be incorporated into the feedback loop.
Some are too fragile and risk breaking,
while others are too strong and could cause something to break.
These forms of becoming presuppose that, in a moment of experience,
bodies pass through the feeling that it could suddenly all be over
at the ends of the world or of human beings.
