On 7th March the Conversation of the School took place in Milan around the surprise effects in the control (on Radio Lacan- number 67 you can find the Introduction by Domenico Cosenza "Anteprima"). Eric Laurent’s commentary we provide, sets out from two contributions, one by Antonio Di Ciaccia who proposes an update of control (Notes about control) from the analyst’s desire, or better, its structural impurity (J. Lacan, 1964), in the light of Lacan’s notion ‘’incarnated pure presence’’ (Lacan, 1973 ref. Television). The other, is Paola Francesconi’s contribution who proposes to introduce the subject from the side of style, citing Queneau to let the variations of the subject on control and their surprise effects, reverberate. Eric Laurent commentary articulates both perspectives enlightening on the obstacle to which they respond to. Therefore the updating as an effort to which Jacques-Alain Miller invites us about this subject in question.
