It is the substance of the graphic sign that reveals itself as the true substance of the world, the swirl or arabesque or thread of dense, feverish writing that replaces every other possible world. The world is transformed into a line, a single broken, twisted, discontinuous line.
Man too. And this man transformed into a line is finally the master of the world, although he does not escape his captivity because the line tends, after many twists and turns, to close in on itself, catching him in a trap.
