Bateson and writing: Whenever a decision to write is made, the decision of a particular order of abstraction is made. The stochastic system which orders the 26 letters, and the spaces between them, is in operation. Such an action is performative and immanent. [in the sense that it is intended]. It is actual and virtual. Actual in the sense that the marks inscribe and virtual in the sense that the marks send news of difference. To write is to establish a circuit; the inscription establishes a material connection to news of a difference.
