Down the road we will have to address the metaphysics (or perhaps discover
their is something other than materialism vs. idealism) implied by this
early dismantling of of differences dressed as dichotomies - but I'm at the
moment more interested in the economy of "seeable and the sayable" that you
identify with Ranciere's foray into differentiation - can you elaborate
this, because actually I suspect that embedded in this there just  might be
an argument for the notion that images (as semiotic constructs)  constitute
indexical signs, rather than mere  abstract signifiers
