That is, even if the feminine is a fetish, it relies, in the words of Dany Nobus, on a “black fetish,” too. Like a Russellian set: x ∈ x, or {{1}, Ø}. Artwork: “Anxiogenic black spots I” (2023), Vusumzi Nkomo, .@aphaekapa

When Marriott referred to blackness as “[an] x-of-x” he was doubling the unknown therein. He quantify it via the identification with the One. Also, you can say he was thinking it via fungibility. At the intersection of the Cartesian line/circle (feminine) and number (masculine).

Thusly, expelling blackness from the graph of desire is not the transformation of blackness from obsessional symptoms to hysteria, as topology teaches us. It will be the end of the world.

Many Lacanians have came to rectify Badiou: the event is not One. It’s only with Fanon’s teachings, we find the event as One. That’s why Lacan himself opted for a moment of war that is substitutive, while Fanon argued for inventivity in a moment of war.

I just realised this argument precedes Marriott’s discussion of atomism and desire in Lacan Noir. To expel blackness from the graph of desire is, somehow, equivalent to the Badiouian event.
‏ً@idepaht

He further says n’est pas is an “abyss”—a rupture “exterior and radically intimate”—that’s not a representation of “[a] thing” but of a “Fanonian object”a “radically symbolic work of racialization” whose a discourse is “[the] expulsion of blackness from the graph of desire.”

the catastrophic effect neoliberalism has on material conditions; simultaneously the desire for more surplus value desire becomes consensus can only be explained through the desiring-production perversion as part of the capitalist unconscious.

@vudoomunkyfut @nomos_ii A lot of people have been asking me about a psychoanalysis reading group. It might have to happen.

4) The family “invents” medicine however iatrogenic; the children die from their “inventions,” too. Meaning is reversed. 5) Roderick, when asked about the deaths: “life is madness.”

1) Number of generations to be psychotic is there; n=3. 2) Hallucinations are primal, but Roderick says his family can displace [“metaphor”] but only him can sublimate. Imaginary compensation is there. 3) The One is semblant; everyone compensates by copying the Father (or One).

OG Lacanians were right. The Lacanian signifier is in most sense filmic. I didn’t know I’d grasp those parts of his capitalist’s discourse (Cd) that were escaping me by watching ‘The Fall of the House of Usher.’
