The "metaphysics" of adjacency is the paradoxical recognition that we find ourselves in a post-metaphysical era due to a widespread shift in the sense of truth. We can no longer hold fixed belief in an absolute truth of "what is" in the terms of an absolute one or an essential unity. The "metaphysics" of adjacency suggests we replace the idea of fusion with an absolute unity in a move towards a cultivation of nuanced cognitive capacity for closeness or proximity within intense relational spaces. In this discussion, we situate this metaphysics of adjacency in close proximity to a discussion of Hegel's Science of Logic, which was birthed in relation to similar metaphysical concerns. For Hegel, the Science of Logic was birthed in the recognition that the scientific zeitgeist had killed metaphysics of ultimate truth, but that in that destruction, there was a foreclosure of the phenomenon that made metaphysics possible: logic. For Hegel, logic is metaphysics, and to develop a science of logic, one needed to reattach the basic form of logic to this world, as the way in which psychic content achieves a higher form. In other words, Hegel wanted to bring logic back to life for a new spiritual world, opening up many new conversations about science and truth, in the process.
