Conversation between Josyane Vanounou and Dov Or-Ner, FROMENDTOBEGINNING

​

• Q: If I asked you the question, "How did everything begin?", would you have an answer?
   

• A: Yes, because everything started at the end - the death of the "original".
   

• Q: But which original are you talking about?
   

• A: The one that when disguised becomes an image. I too wanted to become Rrose Selavy.
   

• Q: But isn't Rrose Selavy a fake identity?
   

• A: Yes, it's a tautology, it's the image of one's own image. Rrose Selavy is someone who only exists in the image, and so I become the image of the image.
   

• Q: At the beginning, I asked you, "How did everything begin?" In your video clip you appear to have difficulty saying.
   

• How did you go about things?
   

• Well, you sat yourself down, all alone, in front of a camera and you started talking and that's how you began?
   

• A: Yes, I had the impression that I wasn't being listened to, so I started repeating myself, and each time I started again, I was no longer very certain of what I had just said.
   

• Q: So, that was when everything began?
