Murder is an extreme act of negation, is the erasing of an existence, the destruction of a world, the negation of all possibilities contained in someone’s future life. It’s also a violent a ffirmation of the perpetrator’s existence over someone else’s death. What sense of identity is perceived by the murderer when is acting in a state of negation? The destructive drive associated with murder implies a perception of the world only ins terms of negative vs positive, yes/no, on/o ff? Do killers perceive themselves like the negative of a film, where all qualities are represented not for what they are but for what they are not?
