Back on the Gaia forum I discussed Fenner's deconstructive contemplation
in relation to Derrida's deconstructive (methodless) method. Fenner's
method is based on various Buddhist ideas. I've also made much hay on
the relation between Derrida and Buddhism. The latter connection has
been much researched, and Fenner's bibliography (link above) cites a
number of those studies. Like Fenner's method, Derrida's deconstruction
is not a fixed method but particular to the matter at hand, which is always singular
and novel. Same with his notion of iteration, which like Levin
acknowledges the repetition of the always already and yet includes the
not yet, given the novel singularity of each particular. Like Fenner it
is a 'way' to enter the ineffable and talk about it! And a way to talk ourselves into it!
Recall Cameron's post on Derrida here, which caused much consternation to the kennilinguists at Integral Life.
