Jacques Derrida

“The center is not the center. The concept of a centered structure…is contradictorily coherent. And, as always, coherence in contradiction expresses the force of desire.”

- There is no normal/ center

- It doesn't exist naturally
- We have created the 'normal' to make sense of the world
- According to postmoderism, when you've found the center of something, it then moves as you source the center of that so you can never completely find the center.
- An example of this is, thinking you've found the original version of a song, but to then discover they've taken parts of the song from another.
