Incessance Quotes

“At the level of the poetic image, the duality of subject and object is iridescent, shimmering, unceasingly active.... In this domain of the creation...phenomenology...if one dare to say so, is a microscopic phenomenology. As a result, this phenomenology will probably be the strictly elementary. It is youthful language.”

“At the exact genesis of Eternity, a God annihilated the Being. The primordial primate – the bipedal, handy, emotive human-animal – transmuted instantly into a paradox: mortal prescience. When a Being died, the dead human body activated the Godhead. The minds, of those remaining, overrode the bodies. For the first time, they saw inanimacy. They saw a corpse. The human skewed futural, into finitude. No!!! The carnal certainty of finite life, in fact, permuted an infinite language.”

“Propositional logic is required to distinguish actualized perceptions from their potentialized thoughts contradicting the linearized perceptions. Oh, but you notice that calling thoughts ‘potentialized’ simply because they contradict linearized perception tells us that perception itself is just the first level of nonlinear logic.”

“Language is often mistakenly conceived as the opposite of mathematics. It is thought to be structurally loose and semantically nebulous, whereas mathematics is thought to be tight, clear, and unequivocal. In fact, not only is language a mathematical structure in its own right, but it is the most general mathematical structure of all, subsuming every other. If language were not mathematical in every sense, and if it were not capable of concise and unequivocal expression, then not only would mathematics (and therefore mathematical physics) be inadequate to characterize reality, but there would be no such things as mathematics and physics at all.”

“Reality is formulated in mathematical terms, and mathematical structures, along with the various cognitive and perceptual structures they describe, can be scientifically formalized only as languages. Even the theory of languages is itself a language.”

“Note, however, that as conventionally understood, the operational and relational closure of an algebraic system does not imply that its identity is completely self-contained. Instead, the mathematician and any required display, storage, or processing media are typically missing from its formal idealization, and it is usually considered to exist in a Platonic realm beyond which no explanation is required. In a ToE, this is unacceptable.”

“An identity is a coherent, stratified, self-dual syndiffeonic relationship. Stratified means that the synetic level distributes over the diffeonic level as a common property, while self-dual means that both levels coincide in a single coherent entity (the syndiffeonic relationship itself). Where the synetic level is regarded as intensional and the diffeonic level as extensional, the identity is just an attributive coupling of intension and extension, i.e., of a label, attribute, or description with the set or other structure which it describes.”

“This leads us to a third sense in which a syndiffeonic relation is self-dual: it relates cognition and perception, the subjective and objective aspects of reality. Where it is perceptually interpreted, its synetic level is associated with the subject as accepting syntax or generative conatus, while its diffeonic level is associated with percepts or objects of perception. The distribution of the synetic level of a syndiffeonic relation generates a medium.”

“In a pinch, one need merely wave expansively at the universe and declare that the theory shares its structure. Unfortunately, getting any farther than this entails a few difficulties. For example, we must decide how reality should be studied in order to discover its structure, and by whom. But this gives rise to yet another problem: physics is not self-explanatory. If physics is regarded as an expression of the structure of reality, then clearly it is real, and a comprehensive theory of reality must explain its every part and aspect. But then in order to qualify as a comprehensive theory of reality, physics must explain itself, its correspondence to reality, and arguably the biological origins and mental activity of physicists in whose minds it exists.”

“The term "unconscious" may thus be taken to refer to those parts of the brain that are not directly involved in a consciousness-fixing perceptual/cognitive loop. This idea has deep meaning for human creative process. In any creative endeavor, be it literature, philosophy, mathematics or science, one must struggle with forms and ideas, until one's mind becomes at home among them; or in other words, until one's consciousness is able to perceive them as unified wholes.”

“In the case of the unconscious mental system this unbound potential which is consigned to repression, consigned to "nothingness," is a most specific and particular sort of ideational potential: wishes and painful ideas of all sorts. These ideas are so erosive to the ego, that although they influence all thought and action, and provide much of the defining quality to perception, they can never be seen. If we defy this rule of ontological stability, and allow this content into consciousness, reality testing is lost, and (allowing for some compromise formation), Psychosis results (Freud, 1911) [or the aberrance of perversion (Freud, 1905d)]. Neurosis, on the other hand, is a symptomatic function of the struggle to repress these wishes.”

“To demonstrate the existence and particular operations of a closed self-referential (tautological) dynamic system which is unobservable in a state of balance, one must introduce imbalance, aberrance, and in so doing, create distortions in seamless systemic operation from which particular modes and types of functioning can be inferred.”

“We discard the logical and inhibitive restrictions of analysis and higher mental functioning, and are rewarded with a chain of associations which at their final end, pierce the associative [and compromise censorship/distortion with conscience agencies (Freud, 1900)] defenses, to yield the hidden meaning of a symptom, and/or, reveal its contributing determinants...those topics and ideas which in combination give the notion its affective force and meaning. This demonstrates the "primary process" and other rules describing unconscious organization and dynamism, in action.”

“Here, we can see Logic, the ability to distinguish between the real (truth) and the unreal (falsity), itself is created from the somatic and mental systems’ emersion in experience, and by way of systemic feedback, the unreal, the hallucinatory, is deemed unworthy of belief, as the pain and discomfort of the unsatisfied hunger drive are not met by the unreal... So, developmentally, we may conclude that Logic is self-configured, self-created from within the psychosomatic system itself as a function of memory, interacting with experience, mediated through feedback with the neural mechanisms of pleasure and pain.”

“How can logic be self-processing? And if logic is an entity which arises out of the system itself as logic must, being as this is a closed self-referential paradigm ... exactly how is this accomplished? What are its consequences for systemic and perceptual stability; and, what other implications might we then draw about the system itself from observing its initial form and mechanism of self-configuration?”

“Note also that the cognitive syntax of the human mind – the time-invariant aspect of human mental functionability – qualifies as a tautology in the same self-referential sense as does metaphysics. Whatever it considers – itself and everything else – it must consider within its own definitive constraints. In other words, it can consider its own structure and operation only within its own structure and by its own operation, and everything else (all which is outside or beyond it) only as an externalized potentialization of itself (i.e., as that which can be considered within it). If the phrase "itself and everything else" seems suspiciously close to the phrase "reality as a whole" – the "universe of metaphysics" mentioned above – then you already glimpse what must follow.”

“Temporally, logical structure precedes biological substance, as an invariant requirement of organizational stability. Spatially, logical structure embeds biological substance, because biosystems, organs, cells, organelles, molecules, and so on, are local specificities of global generalizations.”

“At its utter utmost, depression is the intimate concretion of the remotest abstraction from my body: being nowhere while protruding into the world. My psyche is in limbo, while my body is incessant. The body is a property of the psyche, not the reverse. Accordingly, the abstraction from my body is no longer an aberration. It is newly intuitive. I can distinguish bodily recognition and psychic precognition. In limbo, bodiless, I’m a free being. Sleep is one way into limbo. But the lucidity of awakening from limbo is convulsive. I become anxious, desperate. Then, after breathing deeply, I calm and feel fine. The only hard times are the moments of transfer between pure psyche and hybrid body.”

“This body was just dancing into delirium. Dancing. Just, dancing and asking. And the fiend shriveled into inanimacy. Powerless. Another painting! Three souls – one ghost, one body, one psyche – cohabiting a dark inanimate abstraction. Painting is called, “Interaction With An Inanimate Room.” Or... “Visceral Room.”

“Once the initial paradox dilemma is maximized to the ultimate conundrum of linear reasoning, the conundrum can be translated into the relationally stratified juxtaposition of Truth (consistency) and Derivability (completeness). This juxtaposition has misled nearly everyone into believing, despite being simultaneously contradicted by direct facial perception, an idiotically incorrect “dualism” between internal-cognition and external-perception. Cognition and perception are coupled into complementary (mental and physical) aspects of a singly unified logical (telic) identity which regresses into a merger of consistency and completeness, period.”

“The Table is inanimate.”   “I talk to it, it is ontic.”  “It is ontic.”  This rigid-being right here does not only exhibit, but fundmentally is, self-indifference. Hence, this is organically and functionally empty. This emptiness is being ontic. And thus, this Table is a representative of a class of rigid, inorganic bodies which are, it follows, free of care. Inanimate bodies are just carefree. I, a live human body, am care.”

“Through this reverberation, by going immediately beyond all psychology and psychoanalysis, we feel a poetic power rising nascently within us. After the original inchoate reverberation, we are able to experience resonances, sentimental repercussions, reminders of our past. But the image has touched the depths before it stirs the surface.”

“467. Imagine that my friend Paul and I are currently gazing across a landscape. What is actually happening? Must we say that we both have private sensations...forever incommunicable? Or that, with regard to pure live experience, we are locked within distinct perspectives? Or finally, that the landscape is not, for the two of us, numerically identical...  To consider my perception itself, prior to every objectifying reflection, I have at no moment a consciousness of finding myself enclosed with my own sensation. My friend Jean-Paul and I point to certain details of the landscape, and Paul’s finger, which is pointing out the steeple to me, is not a finger-for-me that I conceive as oriented toward a steeple-for-me: rather, it is Paul’s finger that itself shows me the steeple that Paul sees.  Just as reciprocally, by making some gesture toward some point in the landscape that I see, it does not seem that I trigger for Paul some internal visions that are merely analogous to my own: rather, it seems to me that my gestures invade Paul’s world and guide his gaze.”

“During the dream itself, we do not leave the world behind: the dream space isolates itself from clear space, but it nevertheless uses all of its articulations – the world haunts us even in sleep, and we dream about the world. Similarly, madness gravitates around the world. To say nothing of those morbid fantasies or fits of delirium that attempted to build for themselves a private domain out of the debris of the macrocosm, the most advanced states of melancholy, where the patient settles into death and, so to speak, makes it his home...still make use of the scientific structures of being in the world to do so, and borrow from the world just what is required of being, in order to negate it.”

“Yes, we have refused to locate geometrical space as immanent within mythical space and, in general, to subordinate all of perceptual experience to an absolute consciousness of that experience that would situate it within the totality of truth, because this unity of consciousness...makes its variety incomprehensible.”

“In perception, we do not think the object and we do not think the thinking, we are directed toward the object and we merge with this body.... I open my eyes in the direction of the table and.... The task of a radical reflection, that is, a reflection that bodily attempts to perceive itself, consists paradoxically in recovering the unreflective experience of the world in order to import the attitude of verification and reflective operations back into this bodily experience.”

“Radical reflection is the reflection that, again, takes hold of me while I am in the process of forming and formulating the idea of the subject and the object; it reveals the source of these two ideas and it is a reflection that is not merely operating, but is conscious of itself in its operation.”
