Subject: Addendum


I just wanted to add to last nights posts that this 'essence of existence' or
pre-conceptual subject is precisely not a 'system'.  It is rather that chaos,
that fugitive excess of energies and forces from which systems are constructed
but which also disrupt these same systems.  To talk about these communications
affectations, etc., as a system invokes something that I'm not really 
comfortable with.  Nietzsche, Deleuze, et al., make quite clear that systems
always involve some arbitrary isolation from an 'outside'.  I think the last
note in WILL TO POWER is more akin to what I would support as an 'essence of
existence' or preconceptual subject.

Later,

Nathan
