Summary: Takashi Miike's movies, in nonsense and ultra violent dimensions that circumspect them, seems to say not so much about representation, but they arrest the spectatorship in the experience of image in the means of a surface, with the same brutality that we perceive in the most emblematic scenes in
the director's pieces. This research investigates, in a theoretical field that places the sensorium on the cinema speech, specially in Visitor Q (Takashi Miike, 2001), the possibility of tactile and political view, that submmits the speech in the filme on to the very own surface of image, deterritorializing it. In Miike's case, the video image, texture and grain image. Image if touch,
images that exude immediacy.
