Latour, Kristeva, Derrida, Baudrillard, etc

Numbers are a concept. Not all numbers have a tangible physical counterpart. For instance imaginary numbers are an idea.

Now having said that. It doesn't mean that all numbers do not have a physical counterpart or that concepts cannot have a concrete counterpart. Money, and the value of it is a concept.

But I'm pretty sure that those who argue that there is no physical analog to numbers can quickly be tested and found wanting.

Numbers are of course physical in the sense of being molecules and electro-magnetic fields within the human CNS.

But anti-realism, yo.
