“The archontic power, which also gathers the functions of unification, of

identification, of classification, must be paired with what we will call the

power of consignation. By consignation we do not only mean, in

the ordinary sense of the word, the act of assigning residence or of

entrusting so as to put into reserve (to consign, to deposit), in a place and on

a substrate, but here the act of consigning through gathering

together signs.”
