Keynote Session 3, Cecile Malaspina, Q&A & Discussion 

I love this discussion, but on the first exchange between Hui and Malaspina about the paradoxical "imprint" of infinity in the technical object, I think Simondon gave another phrase that makes this clearer, that the technical object "carries forward" that infinity of potential. I'm still a bit confused about Hui's point here though, to be honest! He seems especially skeptical of transindividuality rather than mere contingency in the technical object? But Simondon strikes me as much more open to seeing the 'analogies' for the three phases within all material structures, and only differentiates them so starkly to focus on their most "conspicuous" manifestations (i.e. from the physical to the psychic to the social). There's so much more information carried in transindividuality than contingency alone (i.e. noise, points of variation, possible error).
