In the Western imagination, the “state” has long been synonymous with order, boundaries, and filtration. To be pure is to be legible. Yet the 2022 work Estado Impuro (aka State of Impurity) —with its cryptic suffix “72 Better”—offers a radical counter-proposition. It suggests that impurity is not a degradation of a prior ideal but an active, superior condition. The number 72, whether referring to a year (1972’s post-colonial experiments), a temperature (blood heat), or a mystical multiplicity (the 72 names of God in Kabbalah), functions as a cipher: the threshold where chaos becomes productive. This essay argues that Estado Impuro presents a manifesto for strategic miscegenation—political, aesthetic, and biological—as the only viable response to a 21st century defined by migration, viral exchange, and the collapse of nationalist fantasies.
As the lunch progresses, Daniel poses uncomfortable questions about happiness, programming, and the potential for "adventurousness" outside of one-on-one commitment. The dialogue-heavy structure intentionally mirrors the deconstruction of monogamy, moving through stages of:
