Plurimodality

Continuing the last post and its predecessors, my first thought in using the term 'amodal' was previous discussion of Latour. This is where I got the tie of amodality with differance (aka Khora). In the opening post of the Ning IPS Latour thread he was using Soriau to discuss how the separate modes are enchained. What is required is a "second order" mode called the plurimodal, "which is defined this time by the movement and the variation or modulation of one mode into another." He goes on:
"But now it is variation itself that has to be considered equivalent to true beings. Alterity alters yet another degree. Difference differs even more differently."
