Visible, Invisible, Reversibility, Flesh, SimondonAbstract
The impossibility to know Being directly as a positive presence, opens the way to Indirect Ontology, investigated by Merleau-Ponty in The visible and the Invisible. In this work the visible is characterized by an invisible side. Between the visible and the invisible there is an intermediate zone, which Merleau-Ponty calls flesh, that is an anonymous and acting dimension that allows the formation of individuals. For Merleau-Ponty and Simondon individualization is a vital process, in which the encounter with the other is not a pretext, but the essential condition to form identities.
