Abstract
‘Who Speaks?’ transposes Lyotard’s critique of the figure of the intellectual and of representation into an audio-visual form; with his voice becoming unspoken text that in turn splits into an interviewer Lyotard and a philosopher Lyotard, forming together a heuristic double like two mirrors facing each other. Yet, whilst Lyotard’s original TV appearance is principally concerned with the figure of the intellectual, the film turns to representation more broadly, namely its failure, incongruity and limits vis-à-vis the events of May 1968 in France.
