The totally flayed man, the perfect automaton, also replaces the body with a total black box. Thus the mingled body finds itself in the middle, between heaven and hell: in everyday space.” (Serres, 2009, p. 25) > “Body and soul are not separate but blend inextricably, even on the skin. Thus two mingled bodies do not form a separate subject and object.” (Serres, 2009, p. 26) ![[The-child-with-a-sandcastle-or-the-child-with-a-bucket.jpg!HalfHD.jpg]] ![[Screenshot 2022-10-19 at 15.48.35.png]] ![[Pierre_Bonnard_-_The_Garden,_1936 1.jpg]] “We never live naked, in the final analysis, nor ever really clothed, never veiled or unveiled, just like the world. The law always appears at the same time as an ornamental veil. Just as phenomena do. Veils on veils, or one cast-off skin on another, impressed varieties.” (Serres, 2009, p. 38) “No, war is not the mother of all things. Battles produce nothing but new battles, hence no productivity. Yes, dialectics loses its way.” (Serres, 2009, p. 73) #### Boxes #### Tables #### Visit “Our unstable lives suffer at least three displacements after encountering three difficult forks in our road. We had to leave our birthplace, swapping red tiles for black slate and grey zinc; one language and its accent for another with a different word for yes.” (Serres, 2009, p. 256) #### Joy ### Related ```dataview LIST FROM [[@serres_five_2009]] and -"Plans" and -"resources" ```
