derrida was preoccupied with undermining the opposition tendencies that has befallen western philosophy. these dualisms are the staple diet of deconstruction

deconstruction is committed to the rigorous analysis of texts, in particular the neglected corners of the text. deconstruction pays close attention to apparent contradictions in the text

a faithful interpretation of derrida is one that goes beyond him. invention is a vitally important aspect of any deconstructive reading. deconstruction solubilizes a texts presence making it oscillate between presence and absence

deconstruction contends that in any text, there are points of equivocation and undecidability that destroys any stable meaning the author tries to impose

the metaphysics of presence is the privileged position of what is; or the way it appears. have we forgotten to pay attention to what condition makes it possible for this privileged position to be possible?

derrida suggests that metaphysics is an enterprise that searches for the origin of all things. metaphysics prefers simplicity to the complex. all philosophers from plato, rousseau, descartes to husserl have proceeded this way

metaphysics involves installing hierarchies and orders of subordination in various dualisms it encounters. metaphysics priorities are for presence and purity at the expense of the contingent and the complicated

arch-writing: is a generalized notion of writing that insists that there is a branch of writing, between what is intended and what is actually conveyed. this breach effects everything we wish to keep sacrosanct, including the notion of self-presence

the meaning of the text is constantly in the future, even when the future comes, it is constantly deferred to a new future, therefore meaning is never present

this is what derrida means when he says there is nothing outside the text, even this meaning is constantly deferred (there is nothing that gives the text meaning)

decisions cannot be wise or posed, they are mad as they require a leap of faith. if decisions require no leap of faith, then we already know the answer to the decision

if we know the answer to all decisions the result would be a computer program that would be able to calculate everything about you and your future (what will become of our freedom?)

is this what science hopes to do, predict and control everything, including the decisions we make. if so, everything in our lives would be known and predictable. the world would be complete. would our lives be any better if we knew everything about ourselves and others? would we still be free?

what is better, a life that is scientific, complete and everything known? or a life of religion, faith, the search for the impossible and the unknown?

this is an undecidable decision, because it can always be deferred. he cannot ever completely justify his decision. although as derrida rightly points out, this should not convey inactivity or despair, the madness of the decision requires urgency and precipitation

however prepared one is to make the decision, at the instant the decision is made, it must break free from the previous knowledge and move forward to the unknown. it must be fundamentally different from prior preparation

general experience is conditioned by time, every experience necessarily takes place in the present, and this present experience is the kernel of or point now. also in the present now, i remember the past, and i anticipate what is about to happen

every experience contains an aspect of lateness, as an experience of now has already gone into the past by the time i get to it

husserl argued that interior monologue is an absolutely unique kind of auto-affection (auto-affection as hearing oneself speak). it is unique because of its self-proximity, no external detour from hearing to speaking, i hear myself the very moment i speak. derrida suggests that this is wrong, how can we hear and speak at the same time, there must be a small gap, as i cannot be the speaker and hearer at the same time. this gap is the trace, minimal repeatability (it is always there). this shows that even auto-affection has a gap, trace that we cannot get close too

deconstruction: derrida has provided three definitions of deconstructionfirst definition of deconstruction: around 1972 attacked classical metaphysics, deconstruction around this time is a criticism of platos opposites (particularly the pheado). derrida believes that western philosophy is favours one of the opposites over another, the hierarchy

second definition of deconstruction: deconstruction and the possibility of justice: one must be free and reasonable for ones action and decision for justice to occur. derrida is asking what is freedom?

third definition of deconstruction: derrida definition: each time i say deconstruction and x, regardless of concept or theme, this is a prelude to a very singular division that turns x into, or rather makes in this x, an impossibility that becomes its proper or sole possibility, with the result that between the x as possible and the same x as impossible, there is nothing but a relation of homonymy, a relation which we have to provide an account

choice of subject matter is a mad and violent decision. there are an infinite number of choices, what do i want to draw and paint. does this decision requires a leap of faith?

deconstruction of the subject matter essentially dissolves any meaning in art or the word art itself, constantly deferring any meaning or definition to the future

the moment a decision is made is a personal event. decisions that are made for us are not free decisions

the trouble for artists is to represent these personal decisions. to others the significance of a decision can look small and insignificant, for the artist however this decision may be a significant break-through in their development

context or base knowledge can stop others appropriating the result of any decision or artwork the artist produces. an artworks meaning goes beyond what is produced on its surface or exterior, its base knowledge must be studied too

with enough work and study, the final decision or physical artworks made by an artist can easily be appropriated by anyone. the series of decisions that make up the base knowledge or context is harder to copy. this is where the real difference occurs between artists

how is the viewer of artwork supposed to react? with decisions of their own? absolutely! who knows what knowledge they base their decision on, this is something that the artist can never account for. each viewers base knowledge is different, therefore the way they interpret the artwork will be different!

no matter how much base knowledge an artist supplies with an artwork, it will still lead to multiple interpretations by the viewer. is it impossible to produce a singular work that every viewer will interpret as the same, as every viewers base knowledge is different
