infra-ordinary
Everyday/Everything/Everyone/Everywhere
what we do when we do nothing, what we hear when we hear nothing, what happens when nothing happens. Outside of the city nothingness can perhaps exist [ ... ] but it certainly does not exist in the city. In the city there is never a void. There is always background noise, there is always a symptom, a sign, a scent. So we were interested precisely in those things which are the opposite of the extraordinary yet which are not the ordinary either - things which are 'infra'.
[Paul Virillo, On Georges Perec]
