Being Finds itself in Nonbeing as Becoming

Being is birthed by nonbeing, and nonbeing is birthed by being. Whatever is "before" this simultaneous co-arising is a nothing that "proceeded" the dialectic between something and nothing, sometimes called the "absolute" nothing because it is without relation to something, so that it isn't even nothing because nothing needs something to negate to be nothing. Whatever is before "the relation" of Alfred North Whitehead's Process Philosophy isn't even what Alain Badiou called an "inconsistent multiplicity," referencing the work of Quentin Meillassoux, because inconsistency co-arises with consistency just as multiplicity is simultaneous with the One. The ground of knowing is the cut into GWF Hegel's Being-in-itself, which is the dichotomous concurrence of being and nonbeing related without the resolution of synthesis across the cut of difference as a twice negated becoming.Binary oppositions are the necessary ground of knowing because when light is separated from the dark, as it is in Genesis, both the dark and the light retroactively create each other. And while they can never be put entirely back together, so that the "light shines in the darkness without the darkness overcoming it," as the Gospel according to John says, there will always be an irreducible remainder of the ambiguity from before the cut. The darkness is also not overcome, and whatever it is that resist the separation of binaries is both the limit and the ground of their dichotomization.The same is true of the determinate negation of knowing through identification. There is no determination without indeterminacy and no identification without difference. Knowing's limit and horizon is the irreducible ambiguity of what is unknowable, just as the Symbolic co-arrises with the Real. https://www.martinessig.com I mix the mixtapes that I post here but...,Baddass vibes mixed by James Reeves of Midnight Radio: jamesreeves.co for the intro and outro music of most episodes.
