"Joy emerges as the sole motivation for philosophizing." (PI:84)

"I am no longer myself but thought's aptitude for finding itself and spreading across a plane that passes through me at several places" (WIP:64)

This operation takes place as if the personae were so many divers, descending from the plane of immanence into the sea below, where singularities lie scattered like so many stray pearls. Braving the depths, the personae collect these shimmering ordinates (chiffres) and then return to the surface, where these singularities will be thrown on a table of immanence like "a handful of dice from chance-chaos" (Flaxman 2019, WIP:75)
