RESUMO
Starting from the participation as an "observer" of the personal clown initiation process conducted by LUME - Centre for Theatrical Research -UNICAMP - this research not only tackles historical aspects and trajectories of some contemporany clowns, but analyzes the politica1 role of the clown, powerful ally in the construction of life possibilities. Different to a character, the clown works with a logic of his/her own, involving singular modes of acting, thinking, feeling. Through a transversal approach, inspired also by aspects of the Deleuzean philosophy of difference, we explore the creation of clown bodies, which ate, in this art, the great differentiators. The clown body, which goes beyond a form defined by costume and make-up, incorporating a "bundle of impulses", a body prepared to 1hink in movement", open to of the mess, brings us other understandings of the relationships between body and thinking. A body created in experimentation, exposed, ready to play. Various voices are summoned to compose this collective assembly, setting the reader among the clowns. With Spinoza, we recuperate the political meaning of joy, defined as a force to affect and be affected, as opposed to the sad passions like resentment and guilt - which sever us from our strength. The sad passions are the flank by which power seizes us, paralyzes us, stealing our force to act and our capacity to be affected. Joy, on the other band, reconnects us with our strength. Laughter implies intensity. Intensity take hold of us and make us feel differently
