event * more of the same

Documentation is surely the most difficult part. Or the easiest part, just reflection on the event (not the event itself).

I need to read some Badiou, apparently. Event. And love, too--what about that! Thinking about how the lover (oh, Roland, you are my philosopher-boyfriend) collects documentation from the world--and is given documentation by (and gives documentation to) the beloved--in order to continuously prove that what has happened actually happened (and keeps happening). A willful prolongation of the event.

More of the same is here.
