Chapter IV-A: A Different Concept of the Body, Not a Machine
a) The body (when a process stops) is what continues; it is the other process

m) Making and images
n) Fresh formation of sequences and tools
o) Schematic terms: Meshed; implicit functioning; held; reconstituted
o-1) Meshed
o-2) Implicit Functioning
o-3) Held
o-4) Reconstituting
Chapter VII-B: Protolanguage
a) Internal space
b) The FLIP
c) The order
d) Absent context in this present context
e) Crossing of clusters and so-called “conventional” symbols; exactly why they are no longer iconic of the body in each situation, and how they are nevertheless organic rather than arbitrary: The internal relations of protolinguistic symbols
f) Language formation: Two kinds of crossing
f-1) The mediate carrying forward, what language use is
f-2) Collecting context(s), the formation of kinds
f-3) Lateral crossing and collective crossing
f-4) Word-formation
f-5) Short units
f-6) The context of a word; collected contexts and interaction contexts
f-7) Syntax
f-8) Language use; novel situations
f-9) Discursive use versus art; re-eveving versus re-recognition
f-10) New expression
f-11) Fresh sentences
f-12) Deliberate
f-13) More than one context; human time and space
g) When is the FLIP? Cessation of sound-formation in language use
Appendix to f: Details do not drop out; universals are not empty commonalities
Chapter VIII: Thinking with the Implicit
a) Introduction
b) Direct referent and felt shift
c) The new kind of sequence
d) Relevance and perfect feedback object
e) Schematic of the new carrying forward and the new space
f) Rapid statements of points that instance direct referent formation
f-1) How an VIII-sequence makes changes in the VII-context
f-2) Any VII-sequence from the direct referent is like a new “first” sequence in relation to the VII-context
f-3) “Monad”
f-4) VII-statements from a direct referent instance that direct referent.
f-5) The new “universality” of the direct referent
f-6) The old universality of VII is implicit also
f-7) The whole VII-complexity, not just the collected kinds, is carried forward and universalized in the new way; we can now derive the IOFI principle
f-8) The direct referent, and the new universalized complexity, was not there before direct referent formation; the direct referent is not a “reflecting upon” what was there before
(“from 1/2 to 2”)
f-9) Direct context crossing makes novelty but still instances the lack
f-10) Many words, like “direction,” are used in an IOFI way in VIII
