" The dialectical process of "laxation" and "taxation" was indeed the main strategy in this system. We can perhaps create an analogy between "laxation" and "kneading", as both are working toward a loosening of tensions, toward breaking down the hard edges that specific meaning has crystallized around a specific word. "Taxation", on the other hand, would connect with the impulse to charge words deliberately with new meanings. In phonetics "lax" refers to a sound pronounced with the muscles of the tongue and jaw partially relaxed,; and it is, of course, also the root for "laxative", which is a drug that stimulates evacuation of the bowels. Something that induces catharsis, that is to say, at least part of this system observes a natural law, and together, in their dialectical interdependence, these two principles are responsible for the continuous, restless flow of mutations that occur in Bord. The will to "taxation", which here stands for the impulse to catalog, index, and organize, is countered by the inevitable movement of "laxation", and vice versa. In Fahlström, the tendency toward objectification is therefore already haunted by the ghost of abstraction."
"Language is not immaterial. It is a subtle body, but body it is. Words are caught up in all the body images that captivate the subject: they may "knock up" the hysteric, be identified with the object of Penisneid, represent the urinary flow of urethral ambition, or represent the feces retained in avaricious jouissance. Furthermore, words themselves can suffer symbolic lesions and accomplish imaginary acts whose victim is the subject."

Jacques Lacan sez:
"Language is not immaterial. It is a subtle body, but body it is. Words are caught up in all the body images that captivate the subject: they may "knock up" the hysteric, be identified with the object of Penisneid, represent the urinary flow of urethral ambition, or represent the feces retained in avaricious jouissance. Furthermore, words themselves can suffer symbolic lesions and accomplish imaginary acts whose victim is the subject."
