“The walk is like a matrix, like a diffuse, vague happening. It's like - imagine a play, a work of theatre, that is totally vague, almost devoid of details that consists in one person going on a walk. And as a consequence, there is a necessary tension between the determinacy and indeterminacy, the definite and the indefinite, of possibility.” PersonsPlayWalksImaginePossibilityHappeningsConsequenceDetailsTheatreTensionDefiniteVague Author:Sergio Chejfec
“At one point I felt a tension between objects, their real, physical lives, and the idea of meaning: the physical, material reality of a book, and the totally intangible experience of reading it.” BookIdeasRealRealityReadingFeltObjectsMaterialsTensionIntangible Author:Sergio Chejfec
“Not to say that the process assumes anything of "greater" or "lesser" importance, though: it's just more graphic information. Take the surrealists, for example, or a work by Cage. For me, there's a great value in doing this with literature. There's a certain form of dependence; process and product inform each other, depend on each other. I consider myself a writer who doesn't write with a style, almost. I begin with tension, with a vibe, a character.” WritingCharacterFormCertainValuesLiteratureProcessGreaterStyleInformationExampleProductsDependsImportanceAssumingTensionDependenceCagesGraphicGreat ValueSurrealist Author:Sergio Chejfec
