I low key believe that no one dares assign a Derrida text to students, cause that's 'cruel and unusual' reading.

Language is overrated. In this Substack piece, I scrutinise language and the fact that much of language is extraneous. As for spoken language, many utterances are not strictly necessary, though they are functional.

I shake hands with #Austin, #Derrida, #Searle, #Wittgenstein, #Nietzsche, and #Barthes on this journey – even a bout with #Pinker.

#Derrida and #Deconstruction. Deconstruction shakes up a concept like text in a way that provokes questions about the borders, the frontiers, the edges, or the limits that have been drawn to mark out its place in the history of concepts. Meanings take on their identity, they come to mean what they mean, by just such a marking out of frontiers, opposing concepts to each other, defining terms by their differences. So deconstructive reading begins by asking, “What are the borders? What are the limits? And how do they come about?” This is the question that Jacques Derrida asks in his article “Living on/Borderlines.” What are the borderlines of a text? How do they come about?

This article is less about what philosophy is about and more about why we can't particularly know some things, and why not.

Let's talk about 'now'. Between the Institute of Art and Ideas and the likes of others, I'm not finishing my book on notably different subject matter.
Time spent on social media doesn't need to be spent on cat videos and acerbic politics to be a distraction. I won't say unproductive because then it might make me feel bad.

Uh, in meinem Kopf „geistert“ (pun intended) gerade etwas herum: #Fisher, #Derrida, #Stirner und hellenistische #Philosophie. Der Blogbeitrag der Woche könnte #WEIRD werden.

My M.A. thesis, "Citing Silences: Finding a History 'Outside' the Archive," is available open access on PhilArchive. It argues that silences produced by Euro-Western historiography in the service of white supremacy can be cited in ways that force the archive to acknowledge its own violence — developing the concept of the "hauntological irrealis."

CW: American Politics
Isn’t this a main tenant of #Postmodernism? That everything is meaningful (or meaningless) thus everything is permissible? It’s been awhile since I read #Derrida and other #Postmodernists.

"Jacques #Derrida once said film is a “magnificent act of mourning,” which “inscribes traces of ghosts” into the projected film. So too is “#TheSecretAgent,” a poignant reminder that though the past haunts us, #remembering is how we reclaim our lost futures."

Die Serie „Freaks & Geeks“ als Ausdruck der Postmoderne: Eine philosophische Annäherung
Die Fernsehserie „Freaks & Geeks“ (1999–2000) von Paul Feig und Judd Apatow gilt vielen als Kultwerk, das die Adoleszenz in all ihren Widersprüchen einfängt. Trotzdem sie nach einer Staffel abgesetzt wurde, gilt sie als Wegbereiter für eine komplexere, breiter aufgestellte Sichtweise auf das […]

Para conhecer a obra Bernard Stiegler
Filósofo francês morto em 2022 debruçou-se sobre as transformações técnicas contemporâneas, relacionando-as com a crise do capital, a formação de novas subjetividades e a alienação.

The #ArchivalTurn as Practice
https://archivaria.ca/index.php/archivaria/article/view/14071
This article reflects on the significance of the affective turn for work in cultural studies and #queerstudies, paying particular attention to the distinction between #archivaltheory and #archivalpractice. It focuses on #queerarchives and especially the creative methods of artists in the #archives. It closes with a brief return to #Derrida’s #ArchiveFever by way of acknowledging its influenceSuper articles à lire dans le dernier #archivaria

Wonder if youngest grandchild is in any way related to #Derrida . - he is a very passionate deconstructer 😄

Finally finished A Language Insufficiency Hypothesis, this post is about my philosophical influences. If you follow me, they'll be obvious, almost self-evident. I've likely forgotten some. I also reveal the ones I have little use for.

So he seems to be saying more that you can’t reach for the “reality” behind the text because there is nothing but the text. But I have read it before as there is nothing which can be disavowed or excluded. The physical context of the text, the book, the sales process, the book reading, the glitches in digitization, the marginalia in physical copies, the supposed expert opinion in the intro contextualizing the text as if standing outside it even though it’s in the same covers, the illustration, the little slip of paper inside from quality control, heck even a note someone slipped inside. Nothing excluded, nothing disavowed and any disavowal of the text treated as just part of the whole of the text.

A little further on
“What we have tried to show by following the guiding line of the “dangerous supplement,” is that in what one calls the real life of these existences “of flesh and bone,” beyond and behind what one believes can be circumscribed as Rousseau’s text, there has never been anything but writing; there has never been anything but supplements, substitutive significations which could only emerge in a chain of differential references, the “real” supervening, and adding itself only by taking on meaning from a trace and from an appeal to the supplement, etc.”
-
“And that is neither because Jean-Jacques’ life, or the existence of Mamma or Thérèse themselves, is not of interest to us in the first place, nor because we have access to their so-called “real” existence only in the text and we have neither any means of altering this, nor any right to neglect this limitation.”
-
“Yet if reading must not be content with doubling the text, it cannot legitimately transgress the text toward something other than it, toward a referent (a reality that is metaphysical, historical, psychobiographical, etc.) or toward a signified outside the text whose content could take place, could have taken place outside of the language [langue], that is to say, in the sense that we give here to that word, outside of writing in general. That is why the methodological considerations that we risk applying here to an example are closely dependent on general propositions that we have elaborated above; as regards the absence of the referent or the transcendental signified. There is nothing outside of the text [there is no outside-text; il n’y a pas de hors-texte].”

Have I been misreading Derrida’s “There is nothing outside of the text”?
I’ve taken it to mean that when you pick up a text like a book or something and it has a series of prologues and a weird cover and an appendix and index and author bio and so on — all that stuff is inside of the text and fair game for interpretation.
But I wonder if I got it wrong. Long quote follows for context.
