What is inescapable is not desire, but the ironic presence of the object, its indifference and indifferent connections, its challenge, its seduction, and its disobedience to the symbolic order (and therefore also of the subjects's unconscious, if he had one). What is inescapable, in a word, is the principle of Evil." --- from list avant-garde-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
