Here's an interesting nugget to chew on:

"In Spencer-Brown's system of thought memory is a form of being, of a distinction, of a self-referential activity, of a boundary ."

“An epistemology of the double cut (subject/object; consciousness/body) must give way to an epistemology of the weld, of the structural coupling (Varela) of the creative subject in interaction with a world that he creates while creating himself in the maintenance of his identity, and this because of its ontological openness and the ontological openness of things.” (Durafour 2006: 30).
