A crystal that, from a very small seed, grows and expands in all directions in its supersaturated mother liquid provides the most simple image of the transductive operation: each already constituted molecular layer serves as an organizing basis for the layer currently being formed. The result is an amplifying reticular structure. The transductive operation is an individuation in progress. O excerto está no texto Gilbert Simondon and the Process of Individuation , de Matt Bluemink, e a imagem é um still do filme Crystallization (1974), de Carroll Ballard. O texto esclarece o filme, e vice-versa. "A informação é o que transborda de uma individuação sobre a outra" (ILFI, p. 490).
