Figures and the figural

Contingency

The everyday, the same for everyone

Indefinite presence. Connected movement. Continually in discontinuity. Indeterminate totality of human possibilities. Weighing down into things. Depositing itself in scattered things. In Blanchot’s final words, “To experience everydayness is to be tested by the radical nihilism that is as if its essence, and by which, in the void that animates it, it does not cease to hold the principle of its own critique” (19).
