I don't know if there was an explicit reference to "White Heat" in any of the essays, but my memory might be letting me down there as I did read it more than 10 years ago! I can't see an references in my notes. "White Heat" always makes me think of the Velvet Underground :) Same era.

Oxford Dictionary says: the temperature or state of something that is so hot that it emits white light. or: a state of intense passion or activity. "she had written the letter in a white heat of indignation" Fits both as opposing cold logic
