The concept’s translation into the sensuous is systematic, not transcendentally deductible

Evidence

In this regard, our approach shall be not so much thematic as strategic. It is a strategy driven by the two concepts – of ‘plasticity’ and ‘to see (what is) coming’ – whose construction is the keystone of this project. The sensible translation of an economy of sensible translation – to borrow the Kantian definition of ‘hypotyposis’ – is itself represented by these concepts. This translation of the concept into the form of the sensuous is in essence systematic, an operation which cannot be pinned down in a transcendental deduction. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 275
