Abstract

CARVALHO, Eduardo Francelino de. Mediatization and language: poetry, thought and resistance in the age of computerized capitalism. Tempo psicanal. [online]. 2022, vol.54, n.2, pp. 275-295. ISSN 0101-4838.

In this article, ideas from thinkers such as Gilles Deleuze, Felix Guattari, Franco Berardi, Michel Hardt and Toni Negri are articulated around the problem of communication and the technical-informational devices operating today, to succinctly show how they problematize, criticize, and respond to some problems raised in this area. In the context of societies of control and the Empire, capitalism works as a semiotic operator that deeply transforms and conditions the processes of subjectivation of individuals based on work, language, relationships, and affections. Therefore, in a first moment of the text, it will be shown how Deleuze's philosophy is composed to a large extent as a resistance to this power of subjectivation, especially with regard to the forms of communication mobilized by it and, in a second moment, as Franco Berardi, continuing this criticism, proposes an insurrection of language in relation to the effects of financial and computerized capitalism on the lives of individuals, evoking a refusal or poetic default promoted against these devices of power.
