about

“Exclusion, inclusion? I don’t know. But in any case I know these archaic questions. Struggles between two men are never anything but theater: appearance, representation (show), scenery, moral, amusements. As soon as we are two, we are already three or four. We learned that a long time ago. In order to succeed, the dialogue needs an excluded third; our logic requires the same thing. Maybe they also require an included fourth. The very lesson is written all around. Saint George face to face with the dragon plays the strongman facing his equal; both are associated, in fact, to cut up into pieces the bodies that crumble under the stable arch of their bridge. These bivalent logics and dialectics are useful only as advertisements, promos, commercials, for those involved. The wolf and the lamb, alone, each on a bank of the river, populate their space with dogs, shepherds, families, kings.

“Exclusion, inclusion? Thesis or antithesis? The answer is a spectrum, a band, a continuum. We will no longer answer with a simple yes or no to such questions of sides. Inside or outside? Between yes and no, between zero and one, an infinite number of values appear, and thus an infinite number of answers. Mathematicians call this new rigor ‘fuzzy’: fuzzy subsets, fuzzy topology. They should be thanked: we have needed this fuzziness for centuries. While waiting for it, we seemed to be playing the piano with boxing gloves on, in our world of stiff logic with our broad concepts. Our methods can now be fine-tuned and in the process, increased in number. Henceforth, my book is rigorously fuzzy. Geometry has made its peace with finesse.”

~ Michael Serres, The Parasite, pages 56-7
