The paper-press functions as a machine that furiously emits signs, that imposes seeing and talking within a dominant syntax, forcing one to think of the game of representations and to rediscover what was always already there. It violently expose a time of death marked by the centrality of the subject in thought. In this article I propose to explore the concepts of sign, event and fabulation by Gilles Deleuze to seek the shifts in the thinking of the paper-press. When unfolding such signs - speed, present time, objectivity and truthfulness - a distinct violence emerges through the event's surfaces, affirmative, an emptying out of the already given significations of these signs that allows for an anything-becoming of the paper; possibilities that the paper-research can find life forces by means of fabulation.
