Abstract

This article is about the potentiality of Queer Theory not as a tool to analyze and criticize power structures and their mechanisms with respect to sexualities, desire, sexual difference, binarized gender identities, and, finally heteronormativity. This kind of Theory is not to be seen as a way to reflect critically on something which is represented or discursively constructed either. Queer Theory, here, is a way of embodied thinking that has internalized the principles of queer as traversing the traditional ways of coherent thinking, of analysis, of representation, of linear narratives and causalities. In the course of its unfolding it actualizes two entities, biodigital composits and nanobots. Those two entities will already have modified on an abstract level the objects of its outcome: sexuality, gender, desire in an unprecedented way beyond oedipal constellations, heteronormative sexualities and gender identities. I call this process techno-ontogenetic queer becoming.
