"Autovivisection"

 
Preciado 359: "A philosophy that doesn't use the body as an active platform of technovital transformation is spinning in neutral. [...] All philosophy is intended to be a from of autovivisection--when it isn't a form of dissection of the other. It is an exercise in self-cutting, and incision into subjectivity. When enthusiasts of vivisection escape from their own body and head for the body of others, the body of the collective, the body of the earth, and the body of the universe, philosophy becomes political."
