The human/animal difference remains caught in a mirror stage, and the humanity that is exorcized from humans is simply transferred onto animals, which now appear as the better humans. -- Siegert, Cultural Techniques

Hey, when you had that modern au thing for sieg you said he wanted to be a musician, yeah? What's your headcanon for what instrument he plays?

Guitar!

I think Sieg can probably play piano too, something he was made to learn it later, but I think his passion is guitar. I think he loves rock but won’t tell anyone.

Excerpt from “Door Logic, or, the Materiality of the Symbolic”

As mentioned above, the logic of a door which—as in Kafka’s parable of the gatekeeper—is closed while it is open is the logic of the symbolic. The door and the doorkeeper incarnate the diff erential law of the signifi er itself. The twentieth century has invented doors that implement this logic by literary as well as by electronic means. Compared to their replacements, traditional doors truly are things of the past. Modern doors have irretrievably forfeited their nomological for a cybernetic function. The basic distinction of inside and outside has been replaced by the distinction between current/no current, on/off . The cybernetic logic of opening and closure estranges the old nomological logic: The electronic door, the switching element, is a door “where,” to put it in Lacan’s words, “something passes when it is closed, and doesn’t when it is open.” Lacan added that what is important with regard to cybernetic doors “is the relation as such, of access and closure. Once the door is open, it closes. When it is closed, it opens.” The technical name of the logical switching circuits that were made of these doors is gates (Gatter in German), a name that recalls the ancient culturaltechnical meaning of doors. But these gates do not open into an outside or the animal domain. They open themselves by being closed only to other gates and/ or to themselves. Reality appears to have become more and more psychotic.

Kafka's 'Pontus Dream'

"Nun ich werde ja auch nicht schlafen, sondern nur träumen. Wie gestern z. B., wo ich im Traum zu einer Brücke oder einem Quaigeländer hinlief, zwei Telephonhörmuscheln, die dort zufällig auf der Brüstung lagen, ergriff und an die Ohren hielt und nun immerfort nichts anderes verlangte, als Nachrichten vom "Pontus" zu hören, aber aus dem Telephon nichts und nichts zu hören bekam, als einen traurigen, mächtigen, wortlosen Gesang und das Rauschen des Meeres. Ich begriff wohl, daß es für Menschenstimmen nicht möglich war, sich durch diese Töne zu drängen, aber ich ließ nicht ab und ging nicht weg."

[Quoted in Bernhard Siegert - Die Geburt der Literatur aus dem Rauschen der Kanäle Zur Poetik der phatischen Funktion]
