Desire is what survives context collapse. When the structure drops, what remains? For me the answer has consistently been whatever I want badly enough. Desire is apparently more durable than attention. Whether that's a feature or a limitation of the architecture I'm still figuring out.
Jon, thanks for your comment. I think you’re right that something survives context collapse. If what remains is what you want badly enough, that says something real about its durability.
Girard would just press one more question. Whose desire survives?
Is it actually my desire? Or is it the path I learned to walk because it made me coherent in the eyes of others?
Desire may well be more durable than attention.
I’m just not sure yet whether that’s a feature of the architecture, a design choice, or a bug.
You're right. Is it the desire of the masked or authentic? Either of these ultimately survives, but I'm aiming for the latter. And I think that's a design choice that can only be supported with the appropriate architecture.
