Re:TheAshLad - Sandbooks

understanding but. maybe cryptic form also allowing the Kristeva
operations on text to. take place maybe in the ghost emanations from
the virtuality of the. sign and the reality of the code. From my view if
would also be. interesting to know if the rhetorical staging into
performance would. be similar to the idea of code as nothing and how
the whole business. dissolves itself.. Interesting reading keep on by all
means.. Re Codework Eco Aquinas (fwd). Sandy Baldwin Thanks for a
very interesting read it blows my mind to. see that the things are still
the same and humbly that my simple. exposition of Eco's sign as
paradoxical based only from Al's short. cites actually is traceable back
to Aquinas (maybe cascading from actus. purus and prima materia
finally).. In addition your article proves to me that a careful logic
intuition. sparse material also can be enough to get into the core of
things. without the proper acacemical frameworks in support. But that's
the joy. of philosophy.. I'm grateful for all the connecting references
I'm commenting short. some from my understanding of Eco posted
earlier which might seem. cryptic without the frameworks for
clarification and confirmation. Bjorn. Charles Baldwin. The inarticulate
cry which seemed to be the voice of light. Hermes. Trismegistus. (the
conventional and virtual (of the chasm (like every convention is.
exactly the chasm))). Refering to the convention of Eco's sign to.
Kristeva's chasm.. The attraction of Aquinas was precisely the answer
to how formal. systems participate with the world an answer that deals
with both the. grounds and the exteriority of sign systems. That is
codework was. already the issue though under the guise of aesthetics
rather than code. aesthetics in the older sense of sensation aisthesis and
not. aesthetics in the sense of codified responses or artistic forms or.
rather in the sense of the ground of these responsesforms. (I've.
discussed this elsewhere in relation to code aesthetics.). Comment
Which maybe boils down to time and space like in the. Kantian sense
of aesthetics and which then links to the recent. discussion here
temporalspatial stuff.. The working out of all this is the notion of
manifestation a quasi. mystical translation between proportionalities
enabling the whole. system. (I think here of the relation between code
and AS's notion of. plasma.).. Comment The 'ether' of prerelativistic
physics as the carrier. The. virtual underlying part needed to get the
system going at all.. The paradox here (Panofsky gets this too but it's
crucial to Eco's. semiotics) is the notion that manifestation will clarify
faith clarify. the underlying participation in being but in doing so will
finally. clarify faith (bring it to an end). This impossible need for.
