A sonic fiction of multiple truffle-nekros assembleges growing under all surfaces. As mushrooms are considered as a paradigm for an alternative life system, I am to further entertain the analogy so as to incorporate a hypogeous, necro- political dimension. I give “life” to the truffle-nekros based on the taxonomic differentiation between mushrooms and truffles. The truffle-nekros is an assemblage. Its task is to emancipate the corpse from the institutionalized, singular death of the subject. By reimagining the materiality of the corpse, death takes on a radical uncertainty.
