In the oriental despotic regime “the void constituted by the uncertainty of tomorrow” p. 79. Does this alleged void as anything to do with the discussion above?

Proper as in detailed, pages in the Negri and Althusser and whatnot. Sorry, “assembling a bibliography” should have been “proper bibliography”, I lose words sometimes when I type.

Althusser speaks well of Deleuze in the new collection, and of Derrida. It might be worth assembling a bibliography on this stuff - the void, aleatory materialism. Comparing accounts of void and constituent power (in Negri, don't know of others) would be interesting as well. Take care, Nate Thanks Discard, and I hope you’re well.

To add a note, in my own interests, for the working bibliography: for more constructivist, or temporally-produced, accounts of Lucretius, the void, etc., there's the appendix to Deleuze's _Logic of Sense_ and Negri's meditation in _Kairos..._.
