conceptualization, concerning ontological difference. Woman & the void comprise the universe, the presence of man throws it out of balance. Every 'being' is a facet of a larger wholeness, supplement to one another or to an Other, the larger looming completeness of which alludes to a Master Signifier - god, or in the case of the OOFKAUU the 1st narrator.

Zizek (& all of EGS) is going to be processed through the written libretto of the opera, text folded upon text, which requires its own visual structure to compose & orchestrate. Research methods of writers to visually layout their ideas, character development, etc. Possibly set up walls to track flows of information through the system. Nodes of interaction & action - nexus points - serve as sites for musical encounters, providing a semblance of ideological structure for the sonic experiments. Concepts in the reading will condense/coalesce into objects (objet petit a, objet a, etc.), as sculptural props & physical instantiations for interactions in the libretto & musical scenarios. *This process of translation shouldn't become too literal: some more meditating is required to decide/decipher the materializations of the concepts - dialectical materialization as a sort of secular alchemy, turning shit into gold - enter Jodorowsky as reference, transmogrifying the discontent reductions of Zizek into positive constructs sending shivers through the ontological mechanisms - the two voices in conversation, as parallax (not opposite) to each other.
