The matters of true philosophical interest at this point in history are those which Hegel, agreeing with tradition, expressed his disinterest. They are nonconceptuality, individuality, and particularity- things which ever since Plato used to be dismissed as transitory and insignificant, and which Hegel labeled ‘Lazy Existenz.’” - Adorno - Negative Dialectics.

Technical background:
These have been developed from the previous 1 Terabyte (233 disk) piece. Using custom software “shuffled” mp3s are combined and created to form playlists over many 1000s of tracks, each in turn made from random tracks of six seconds using the idea of “shuffle play” found on MP3 players (Which could be seen and is used as the individuation of the mass technologics of consumerism.).
For a 8,000 track piece there are a possible 8000^8000 possible “performances” (Each “track” being a random composition of 9 six second tracks.) Assuming all “permutations” are actualized, for example with 3 = 3 ^ 3 = 27

Where a performance virtualizes all possible sequences without repetition.
In this case (#1,#2#,3 #4- 8gb Micro SD Cards) 7777 ^ 7777 @ 63.25 seconds each gives a total playing time of 136.6 hours each and 44276.27 hours or 121.3048 years for the 7777 sequences of the possible 7777 ^ 7777 totality of non repeating sequences. For instance on shuffle play this would be the shortest sequence where no sequence is repeated.


Phenomenological move.
The universe of the individual.

The scientific method consists in generalizing from the specifics, similarly in mathematics in set theory treating the many as one. This is no source of any ontology, as ontology is a fiction of the ontic. 'There is not a set', genus, species and class are constructs, as are all categories, male, female, right wrong, good, bad… real, unreal. The virtuality exists only by virtue of the real, the actualization of the virtual is from the real contra Deleuze or is an activity, a presentation of the event, events and virtualities are philosophic violence’s on the real, on the many, on the individual, on the specific, on identity. Classifications are fictions forced on the real of life and experiences, on onticity. An object is not a problem of existence for the cogito, but a myriad of physical, psychological, historic, domestic, trivial associations, and beings.

The process of creation in Modernity, both analytic positivists reduction and dialectics towards an absolute are acts of violence towards the individual’s identity in an authority of mobilization towards The One, the Absolute (the "mass"), in science, art and philosophy, reduces moments of being to pathological states, workers and bourgeoisie, enemy and comrade.

Adorno’s negative dialectics – critique of system as the untruth of identity- “ the concept does not exhaust the thing conceived…. Dialectics is the ontology of the wrong state of things. The right state of things would be free of it; neither a system nor a contradiction…...Theory and mental experience need to interact” ….. Laruelle‘s critique of philosophers “decision”, Harman’s “Allure” of ‘THE’ Object point to a signified which language only ever captures and in doing so without poetics, a vision of self is that of the chaos of personal memory and affectation within the milieu of technology, pedagogy, science, history, philosophy & art.

Dogmatic metaphysics objectifies, therefore de-objectifies transcendent metaphysics (not transcendental – which is the product of categorical philosophy) and so objectifies transcendent metaphysics as its own non-objectivity. Hence dogmatic metaphysics could be seen as an art work which depicts – only in this case if it empties itself of content – or if the content is ignored – due to its triviality – it becomes the limit for which the transcendent ‘world’ is – greater / outside that Lim+/-(1…8). What then depicts the non-depictable must be the object (outside of depiction/thought) itself. So in depiction the idea of philo-fiction. Not found or alluded to in the logical meaningful play of symbols – even in games – from the application of rules. In Brassier/Adorno we can find the idea of thinking and the unthinkable, irrational non thought world foreclosed to thinking, thoughts / concepts. Foreclosed to philosophical thought but not to scientific (fictional) thought. Pragmatic thought. So adopting non-philosophical thought which claims philosophy (ology) as its subject from within the real. (Brassier nullifies thought / life into death) Thinking the death of thought (of object). However the universe is neither dead or alive, yet supports both. It has created the eyes which see it and the minds which think it, but it is removed from these, though not completely, there are eyes and minds, unlike Harman’s complete withdrawn, with the unknown and chaos non-chaos un-structured structures exists. Actual objects stand non totemecillay as non-symbols of themselves. Duchamp’s urinal communicates the context of art as idea, independent of the object, he logosizes the object – as art. De logozizing the object stands not as created thing-for-a-purpose, as art or function, not even as a value as a thing in itself – but it must conceptually lose itself in the non concept which is the world. Purposeless – yet not broken – but empty of use and meaning, it is a thing-in-itself, part of the world, ‘The World’. E.g. the empty sampler, filmless camera, as non historical object. Neither aesthetic or symbolic as text, e.g. the text “Ethics” by Art Language pasted to the wall – de-texts the text. Art as presentation in the real of the real by not by hiding it, but as seeing it as unseen and hidden.
