Omg I hope you find it.  Part of me feels like it must be Žižek.  Also, I feel like the sign [laughter]—not [laughs] or [laughing] but [laughter]—in that specific interview gestures to a context of social being and doing that can’t quite be contained within the topical logic of what they’re discussing.  Another way of being with another, so foreclosed from signification that the only way we presently know to leave a place for it—let alone embrace it—is to enclose it between bars.  I mean brackets.
