Let us now explore our second root metaphor, that of 'reproduction'.
A phenotypical reading of the term, or what I have previously referred to as a 'negative'
definition, invokes all of the modern and sterile resonances of mechanicism and technicism,
it speaks of a crafted or rather fashioned re-prodection.
at its strongest we have a copy or repaet, at its most dilute an imitation or a likeness; within
this limited sense of the term we are presented with repoduction as replication;
this is a metaphor of constraint.
