Ok, I know we're technically done with Zampano...

BUT! I though this was interesting:

"Both the body of need and the body of drive are real insofar as their source (Quelle) is in the body, but whereas need involves the inside of the body, the inner organs (the stomach, intestines, and other vital organs), drive involves the surface zones of the body and the erogenous openings. (The eye is a special case in terms of source in that it is an organ which is half inside and half outside, rather than a hole, as the mouth and ears are.) The openings are vanishing points where the inside meets the outside. The two bodily zones, though distinct, interface. They are superimposed and connected via the figure of interior 8. The continuity and connection of the zones makes transgression possible. The interior 8 writes or draws one body upon the other as in a palimpsest or pentimento... Perhaps it would be well to say that the old conception, replaced by a later choice, is a way of seeing and then seeing again." (From Reading Seminar XI - The Demontage of the Drive, p. 120) (My emphasis in blue and red)

I was just thinking that this seemed interesting in terms of Zampano's blindness, and the idea that replacement with a later choice might be a way of seeing again. What does that say about the minotaur, or perhaps Zampano's decision about the children's fate, which, if you read the image on the front cover-ish insert thing, talks about how perhaps he'll kill them. This idea of the drives as holes, or holes - houses? - and the eye as being half inside and half outside makes me wonder about Zampano's drives vs. his needs: If his organ which is able to straddle both worlds is blind, then is he in neither?
