Inversion-Induction: A Way to Think about Lacan's Topology as a non-Mathematician

This is the first of a series of instructional videos is to show how Lacan’s thinking depends on a special kind of visualization that we could call topology if we were mathematicians or inside-outness if we were not. Lacan coined a word for inside-outness, extimity in the English form, but as easy as it is to talk about gloves and puzzles, Lacanians in general have not picked up on this option to talk about topology without topology. Let’s try another approach, called the induction puzzle, where the answer is embedded inside the question.
