Kid A In Alphabet Land/Gaze
Gaze
Kid A In Alphabet Land Grapples with the Ghastly Gaze!
The gaze is not what the subject sees, but the point at which seeing falters. It marks the subject’s discovery of being seen from elsewhere.
For Lacan, the gaze belongs to the object. It emerges when the fantasy of visual mastery collapses.
Within *Kid A In Alphabet Land*, the Gaze unsettles orientation. Kid A discovers that something in the world looks back.
