THIS form of knowing: organizing Delano's 'whims'; here 'Progression' as a logical narrative is indeed opposed to cyclicality (the possibility of a cut) to an experience of experience: a very different form of "reflection" of self-consciousness

cut as repetition on the "timbric" level means that it is a technology of development and recurrence, a formal condition of each.again, Snead's insistence to keep the cyclical and progressive apart.

the purpose of this project would be to show the nature of this force, why the approximation happens as it does. a reaction to force: interesting to think about - the new world "cuts" of the African. no longer "coverage" of culture, but the use of incision for culture. Snead seems to paint all black culture transhistorically with the same brush. Especially if we consider that Hegel's African might well be Haitian.
