Скачать или смотреть The Villaraceau Cut: Lacan's topology's relations to inversion geometry and, hence, ETHNOLOGY

This silent video is a visual zairja to use when thinking of how Lacan's topological thinking was evenly distributed across the broad expanse of his work, from 1935 to 1980. Add your own narrative as you loop this video to consider two of the most ethnological of Lacan's and Freud's ideas, "between the two deaths" (an interval common to all cultures) and the contronym (words combining opposite meanings, said to proliferate in early cultures. Both of these ideas are present in the Villarceau cut, which converts an ordinary 3-d torus (bagel, donut, bicycle tire) into a 2-d torus, thanks to its production of a cut shaped like two Euler circle in the relation of symmetrical difference." Take this to other topological figures, beginning with the Möibius band, and re-think other critical ideas, such as the après coup and L-Schema. Oops! Don't forget lalangue! Create your own "zairja" (personal thinking machine).
