Quasi object

The quasi object seems to be a third element that relates, or defines the perspective from which to read, the ‘reciprocal determination between the subject and object’.  I am unclear as to whether this quasi object could also be thought of as the noise or the filter. If the noise is the ‘entropic’ quality in a system then perhaps the quasi object can be both (noise and filter). In this model, it can create a new way to read the relationship between the subject and the object by creating the interference, or it can change what is allowed to emerge from the unchanging constant interference. The quasi object only defines the group through movement, as soon as stasis is achieved the individual is created. It seems to be acting here as both the noise (of the collective) and then the filter (when it stands comes to rest).  Cybernetics, as defined by the founder Norbert Wiener, is the control and communication in the animal and the machine, and underlying this is the idea that all control/communication systems can be described and understood using the same language and concepts.  Perhaps the noise is the just the differing element between all systems, and the varying quasi object are the markers of different systems.
