Entropy, Wasting, and Surplus Enjoyment

This chapter delves into Lacan's concept of entropy and wasting, and explores the idea of surplus enjoyment perceived in the dimension of loss. The speaker discusses the concept of Objay A and uses the analogy of a bell to illustrate this differential relation between the internal and external aspects of an object. They also touch upon the topics of repetition, retroaction, and the replacement of lost objects in classical psychoanalytic understandings of the drive.
