How is it that a body comes to think it ought to be something, that the world ought to be something, rather than being merely what it is? Ethics is the way in which bodies fold time into themselves and, in particular, the way beings fold the future into themselves, in their becoming and their relation to the world that they enfold. The great enemy of an ethics of the fold is abstraction, when we think bodies as “objects” or as micro-sovereigns severed from their field.
