Experience is the structure of the phenomenon. What you see is what is looking - and this is so at all levels. For example, your social world is the inverted reflection of your social self. The 'I' is the concept on which this pivots, in a similar way to other terms, like çonsciousness'or 'awareness', which objectify the subjective or subjectify the objective. The relation, subjective-I-objective is analogous to that of past-present-future: the entire relation is contained in the middle term, is a particular kind of assymetric unfolding of it. Object and subject are not inescapable categories, they are elements of a way the phenomenon can be understood, and they carry their own immemorial biases. If there is to be a realm of objects then there is a counterpart realm of subject, they are interdependent. Objectivity is plural and diveregent, subject is singular, a withinness inside of all space. The 'I' as the object present in all objectivity is the universal object and hence represents the subject. If in the phenomenon a mastery is sought, this is the complete realisation of subject as object, beyond representation. The search, the peculiar imperative driving it, is the very mechanism of the dream of life. But objectivity is as illusory as its counterpart subject. There is no-one to pick up, to identify with, the 'I' object, if so it would be an 'I' outside the 'I'. What you see is that the truth is neither in the extended objectivity nor in the extended subjectivity since these are both virtual spaces. If anything it must be at the strange point where the one crossses over into the other, the singularity closest to the surface of the mirror.
