I am pleased to present this interview with Daniel Y. Harris. Along with being Publisher & Editor-in-Chief of X-Peri, a stream for high experimentalism, Harris is the author of numerous collections of xperimental writing. Topics covered here include the writing process, the evolution of his Posthuman Series, The Reincarnation of Anna Phylactic (forthcoming from BlazeVOX [books]), a foray into the elusive "I" and "it," respectively, among others. Included in his responses, you will find select pieces from the Posthuman Series as well.
DCW: How long have you been working on The
Reincarnation of Anna Phylactic? What does your writing process look like?
DYH: The Reincarnation
of Anna Phylactic, Volume
III (Manuscript), The
Tryst of Thetica Zorg,
Volume II (BlazeVOX, 2018) & The
Rapture of Eddy Daemon, Volume I (BlazeVOX, 2016) are the oeuvre, to date, of my Posthuman
Series, launched in 2016. The Posthuman series can be characterized as invoking a
posthuman praxis, a shift in the humanistic paradigm and its
anthropocentric Weltanschauung.
Posthumanism’s epistemology is a post/meta/trans,
enacted through its emergent ontology and critique of biocentrism. The
xperimentalism at the center of my Posthuman Series is a lingua franca comprised of algorithms with rhizomatic outlines:
dynamic, mutant, shifting.
The core trope of the Posthuman Series is the
algorithm: alteration of Middle
English algorisme, from the
Islamic mathematician, Arabic al-khuwārizmi, flourished a.d. 825
translated into Medieval Latin algorismus
during the 12th century under the title Algoritmi de numero Indorum.
Computer algorithms such as the Low Orbit
Ion Cannon (LOIC) and the High Orbit Ion Cannon (HOIC), examples of the common
DDoS attack script, are the new phrankoi of an
xperimental poiesis whose intent it
is to create infinite variability as the new narrative. Algorithmics facilitate
a siphoning from a canonic trajectory by launching an aporia at the center of a plurivocity, part totum simul and part anagnorisis.
The Posthuman Series is a praxis which seeks
to reassemble the Western Canon as a malware maelstrom of over-competing
algorithms and agons modelled on the arch-classic Horatian Ode, “Exegi
monumentum aere perennius” (I have finished a monument more durable than
bronze). This “bronze” is capable of translating a symbol as infecund as a two
character Thai sequence into syncategorematic hyperlink. Via (λx.λy.(λz.(λx.z
x) (λy.z y)) (x y)), a Turing automata, constructing a CGI with an fMRI scan,
invents the new narrative with hexDump(“TELOUT”, buffer, len) using an HTTP
electracy, melds prosody with an infernal machine of computer viruses: ILOVEYOU,
Code Red, Melissa, Sasser, Zeus, Conficker, Stuxnet, Mydoom, CryptoLocker and
Flashback. The Reincarnation of Anna Phylactic is launched:

Volume III, The Posthuman Series, (1.0)
By Algoritmi
de numero Indorum, the Posthuman Series crosses the mulitversal periphery,
but it does have algorithmic precursors in my oeuvre. In the seminal Hyperlinks
of Anxiety (Červená Barva
Press,
2013), DRAKONs melt
cryonicals—the bot blogoid inserts a SIM. In “Confessions of Blogger,” the
blogoid “Add (s) a mix of theurgy/and hyperlink to
neuts of gramme—I spin/henosis in blogland: neurons/in the wet gauze/of def,
spores of tag—the zot in the stasis/ of the Web:/.” In The
Bug in the Bait File, “An ecclesia of wings/enters ear/and net/Trojan or
worm/replicates/deadlock by/a bit rot glitch/of a software gland/in a
handle leak—.”
In The Underworld
of Lesser Degrees (NYQ
Books, 2015), as deus ex machina, a
cybot in the form of hypostasis declares “Faith
is anemic, propane/blue—sulphur-pox:/kelvin or rankine, scaled to a
thermodynamics/of absolute zero and zero/is the adiabat S = 0:/.”
Cybot curves its oblique asymptote with E/N/C/R/Y/P/T/I/O/N
“Limbic behavior occurring at the daemon
bifurcation: the attracting/de-acting fpoint “collides” repelling period
q-cycle −1.401155 or −0.1528 + 1.0397i#@endtime, volution function
discrete/waxy non/post/ur/linear dynamical system: lap numbers of the iterates
X-ray.”
Given the asumptōtos and misprision of
the precursor, the protagonists of the
Posthuman Series “Anna Phylactic,” “Thetica Zorg” and “Eddy Daemon” are comprised
of a dramaturgy of postbiological AIs rendered as Miraibots and DDoS viruses.
Each posthuman protagonist breaks away from hegemonic essentialism by
augmenting traditional narrative forms with cybernetics, genomics, neural
interfaces, algorithmics, molecular nanotechnology (MNT), whole brain
emulation (WBE), IMs (instant messaging), IRCs (internet relay chat) and
(MMORPGs) massively multiplayer online role-playing games.
In The
Rapture of Eddy Daemon (BlazeVOX, 2016), Eddy Daemon emerges as the first
mature posthuman protagonist in The Posthuman Series, simultaneously
macranthropos, Shakespearean omniscient, self-overhearer and AI interface:

In The
Tryst of Thetica Zorg (BlazeVOX, 2018), in “Exergue I”, Thetica Zorg has
hybridized her/his “Godbot” digital torso with a DDoS virus, partially scripted
as “echo ipconfig/release_all>>c:windowswimn32.bat.” Thetica Zorg
performs autofellatio and “The
Imps are born by remote homo ludens” (both the book, Homo Ludens, Huizinga, 1938 as well as
inborn play) “and CνB decoupled” (a
cosmic neutrino background at a temperature of roughly 1.95 K.), thus “in redshifts.” Finally, “in thresh
interfaces” internet “files are cast” as “WIN-BUGS FIX.EXE” and the virus
inseminates the Western Canon of Literature. (WinBUGS are the successor to
BUGS, the first program to perform Bayesian analysis of complex models using
Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, and provided access to the functions
of BUGS through a Windows interface.) Transversal alliances between human and
posthuman agents are cast:

The
Posthuman Series protagonists Eddy Daemon, Thetica Zorg, The Imps, Gregor
Samas, Khôra Samsa, Orb Oran, Salvador Dracu, Maximillian Pissante, Sophia
Latrinus and Anna Phylactic are glossolalists, syphoning their lexicon from English, French,
German, Spanish, Italian, Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, Greek, Latin, Russian and
the computer programming languages, HTML, BASIC, C, C++, COBOL and Java. Mixed
with this Posthuman Migdal Bāḇēl are enumerative and extremal combinatorics, optical
physics and thermal dynamics, all melded in a bricolage of the kabbalistic
concepts of notarikon (letter combinations), gematria (assigning
numerical values to letters) and temurah (sentence and word
rearrangements.) The Posthuman Series zeitgeist
burns heterocosms.
DCW: How did your Posthuman Series coalesce into something so
dynamic? Who and/or what informs your writing?
DYH: My praxis (πρᾶξις: theoria, poiesis, praxis), part eupraxia, part dyspraxia and part prassein,
is that of siphoner. I am posthuman, automata, archivist, chameleon, cybot,
singularian, übermensch, dandy, Iago, Pierrot, Pulcinella or Mephistopheles,
Maschinenmensch, avatar, alias and bricolagist, sauntering in fedora, clad in
black & red, Kiuw Pueblo patterns, through The Bibliotheca Corviniana, The Aedificium,
The Madrassah Library and the Algoritmi
de numero Indorum, via Jacobian matrix and determinant. I am the form
Ω ~ R × Σ, where Σ is a three-manifold of the nontrivial topology. Launch the
complex in the Roman Ring. My
ringularity is located at the equatorial kink of the inner ergosphere at R=a.
My écriture by digital declensions occurs on a laptop and android. A dozen
websites are hunted with the precision of a sniper’s Kalashnikov or a Black Hat
Hacker’s DDoS stealth. Is it omnicide, larceny, auto-da-fé or misprision?
A mosaic absconder? How conceptualist! How post-conceptualist! Dr. CannIbalIsM
or synkretismos? King Moshiach: (Hebrew: מָשִׁיחַ, translit. māšîah; Greek: χριστός, translit.

oil’) or cyboric einsatzgruppen? Part
Zelig, part Ex Machina, part Ezekiel’s solar mass (M☉), I am Vitruvian Man and Nosferatu in a
binary X-ray source GRS 1915+105. The temporal is exponential, rather than
linear. The proverbial “it,” is gilded with infinite variability. I eye the tidal
forces acting on a spherical body in a non-homogeneous gravitational field,
and tag this list to siphon.

DCW: There is some alluding to sexuality in your work. I can’t
help but think of Heller Levinson’s remark that the Universe is quite erotic. How
does the erotic figure into The Reincarnation
of Anna Phylactic?

reincarnation. Anaphylactic shock or ejaculation? The bondage rigger wears a
