Gregorios Pharmakis




Construction of a plural person.

Gregorios Pharmakis is constituted as a person when acting within
the circumstances of a closed framework: a bus, an exhibition,
an organization, etc. it is there that the person's face can be shaped,
as a shared fantasmatic figure. Pharmakis is somehow identified
to the invisible ghost of this non-consciously structured
community. The person's figure could be seen
as a semi-conscious, irresponsible network function.

pharmakis in the ESF

GF will not be in Athens, during the meeting of the Social Forum.

GF’ members designate the places where GF will not be present. Anyone, passing, working in the places, may consider GF's plural person, negating the person’s state of irresponsibility, negating the urban context she is acting upon, re-constituting the (impossible) community of the person.

Sao Paolo

Gregorios Pharmakis proposes “BUS” for the Sao Paolo Biennial, within the context of the existing bus line network of Sao Paolo. Pharmakis will use storage and net structures, in-situ mapping actions, to mirror and reorder existing unconscious formations of changing communities within and around the bus environment. Productivity without responsibility, construction of her face in front of an invisible community, G.F. is presented as the ghost of an unstable community. She also hosts this community and forms it as an allegory. G.F. is shaped as an allegory of the community, confirming and negating it at the same time.

gregoire's condition 342

Gregorios Farmakis exists only in the condition that
1. every operating member loses his or her signature entering the plural person
2. every operating member detects, inscribes, records, and re-establishes this specific urban condition by interacting to it
3. the detected persons entering the solid “bus- like” structures (the "passengers" of the bus) may take GF’s place even if as hostages of the ghost figure of Gregorios. Operating members and persons entering the "bus-like" structure are engaged not always voluntarily in the person's irrisponsability. The ghost person is not a shape that anybody of them can control. They enter thus every condition but they can never know and they do not know the whole setting of every Gregorios' project.


this post is subject of transformation from any gregoire's operating member
Gregorios Farmakis hopes to incorporate dissolution in a invisible fading form, this of a common signature.
Gregorios Farmakis lives by the simultaneous mourning of interiority and exteriority.
GF's face is identified with all persons she meets in the fields she enters.
Gregorios Farmakis installs a continuous move from her inside to her outside: the difference between inside and outside though is difficult to identify. She always operate her figure while she comes out from the inside and enters the outside or vice versa. Gregorios Farmakis is shaped when this transgression between inside and outside is made. She is a figure that takes shape in the threshold between these two different sides of her.
the form of the ghost is the blog (the ghlog)
The ghost is formed in the city and always present and absent in the web's memory.

web shadow and the city

The actions of Gregorios Farmakis are specific actions in the city that install her as a ghost figure. She operates in the specific bus field circumstances in the city but appears as a shadow in the web.

The actions of Gregorios Farmakis are specific actions in the city that install her as a ghost figure. She operates in the specific bus field circumstances in the city but appears as a shadow in the web. She is balancing between presence and absence in concrete group conditions.
Another shape of her plural face is hidden in http://www.apothecae.com/

internal discussion



Any Gregorios Farmakis' operator who decides to publish one of the blog's drafts he or she can do it. He or she can also hide the presented material as well.

work

in the person, work is impossible.

the interior of the person

This blog is not just a presentation of Gregorios Farmakis' work. The blog has the status of an internal voice of the person. The blog is full of hidden drafts, which can be seen only by the Gregorios Farmakis operators.

Bus

Gregorios Farmakis identifies herself in specific city conditions, taking the form of an actor, working in specific urban fields. These fields are characterised by a stable frame and a random consistency of persons that enter the frame. To organise an emblematic reconstruction of such a frame, Gregorios Farmakis uses the example of a bus; she acts and she forms herself through acting in a bus, trying to perform in such a way as if she understands the mobility and the random change of the entering persons and –in the same time- the stable apathy of the field form.
Gregorios Farmakis is a ghost person, a signature with an inhabited void behind it. The person always has the depth of real people operating behind her in her name.
