So let us conclude with a reference to the (in)famous last proposition of Wittgenstein's Tractatus: »Wovon man nicht sprechen kann, davon muss man schweigen.« This proposition renders in the most succint way possible the paradox of the Oedipal Law which prohibits something (incestous fusion) that is already in itself impossible (and thereby gives rise to the hope that, if we remove or overcome the prohibition, the »impossible« incest will become possible). If we are effectively to move to a region »beyond Oedipus,« Wittgenstein's proposition is to be rephrased into: »Wovon man nicht sprechen kann, davon muss man SCHREIBEN.« There is, of course, a long tradition of conceiving art as a mode or practice of writing which augurs that which »one cannot speak about,« i.e. the utopian potential »repressed« by the existing socio-symbolic network of prohibitions. There is also a long tradition of using writing as a means to communicate a declaration of love too intimate and/or too painful to be directly asserted in a face-to-face speech act. Not only is Internet widely used as a space for the amorous encounters of shy people; significantly, one of the anecdotes about Edison, the inventor of the telegraph, is that he himself used it to declare love and ask the hand of his secretary (being to shy to do it directly, by means of a spoken word). However, what we are aiming at is not this standard economy of using cyberspace as a place in which, since we are not directly engaged in it, i.e. since we maintain a distance towards it, we feel free to externalize and stage our innermost private fantasies. What we have in mind is a more radical level, the level which concerns our very fundamental fantasy as that »wovon man nicht sprechen kann«: the subject is never able to assume his/her fundamental fantasy, to recognize himself/herself in it in a performance of a speech act: perhaps, cyberspace opens up a domain in which the subject can nonetheless externalize/stage his/her fundamental fantasy and thus gain a minimum of distance towards it...
