Had an interesting conversation with Talan Memmott in Amsterdam this weekend about OOO and agreed that the focus on things overlooks the importance of process and the consequent mutability of things. This is where OOO's reductivist nature and flaws become most apparent. So, you are neither a thing nor an object but a process within immanence (that's a word will drive OOO people mad).
