III. Five-Hundred-PoundCanary
What are the implications of the Cagean abdication of principles for
or
assigning importanceand significance?A method formaking indeterminate,
forrandomizing,a sequence of signifiers
a
concomitant
arbitrariness
in
produces
the relationof signifierto signified,a situationcharacterizednot by an effacement
of signifiersby signifiedas in Gone with the Wind,nor by a shiftingrelationship
of signifierto signifiedwherebythesignifier
itself,or theact ofsignifying,
bybeing
foregrounded,becomes problematic, but by a denial and suppression of a
relationshipaltogether.
What is this but an attemptto deny the veryfunctionof language and, by
extension, the signifyingsubject, which is, according to Lacan's definition,
dependent on and constructedthrough and in systemsof signification,i.e.,
language?
