Paper Abstract
Antonio Boliva’s On the Edge of the Fold: Madness and Extinction
Kim Satchell (Southern Cross University)
In What is Philosophy? Deleuze and Guattari refer to crazy etymological exercises and conceptual personas as philosophical athleticism. They posit the thinker in the conceptual persona of a surfer and then renounce the sporting figure in pursuit of another. However as a surfer and thinker, there is no need to disavow the connection but rather rearticulate the dynamism of both with personas of a coastal philosophy. The breakthrough came when I met Antonio Boliva, who became friend, stranger, sufi, shaman and confidant. His near death experience and consequent zest for life, helped me to see everything in a new light.
The resultant self-directed field and archival work of this collaboration has proved invaluable in producing a minor literature of place. This paper provides a brief prologue proceeding to discuss some of the key concepts of a coastal philosophy, working in an affective register with creative practice both literary and artistic. Highlighting Boliva’s skill in ‘pareidolia’ encouraged by Leonardo as a method to exercise the imagination, disparaged by sceptics as the portent of madness. Further theorising ‘hierophony’ (sacred in the ordinary) as practice, in the context of cascading biological diversity by species extinction, toward kinship and a multi-species sense of place.

They give voice to the inner contours of a reflected cosmos whose whirls they follow. They undulate with the moving world in which they seek to live, survive and know intimacy. Stories are the navigations of people whose vulnerabilities plumb unknown depths, whose sea anchors seek to moderate the tumultuous events and circumstances of life. On occasion, they surf as a slide of supreme pleasure. The narratives they follow and the spaces they embody are critical to any understanding of the conditions of everyday life, including the daily life of academics. In the context of this paper, creative research practice offers an emergent form of cultural studies, engaging the world in more descriptive and speculative terms.
