Episode notes

The point of intersection is the point at which, as lhe kon put it, signifier falls into the signified. So thisis, this is where hegel meets lekan for gjak, the signifier and the signified in h particular. Willto maybe finish off his theoretical claim about the mobia strip, wet, we dialectics. We got a negation of negation. And he finally, to kind of bring the whole point home, he writes, it's time now to introduce some conceptual order in this series of examples.

This week the fellas talk Žižek's use of the Möbius strip. Žižek writes that "the Möbius strip stands for the basic dynamics of the order of being, for what was traditionally called the dialectical 'coincidence of opposites'". While working through the concept, &SoOn talks art, Top Gun, and Midnight In Paris.
