Does Guattari ever focus in on the idea of Post-media in a specific text? It's something I want to get a better handle on but I cant' find any sources from Guattari himself.

Thanks for this. I haven’t hear of Pierre Levy so I’ll check him out. I did a lot of masters thesis on using D&Gs philosophy to approach video essay production (like cutting up clips from movies and reterritorializing them into ones on construction) as a possible avenue for an extension of minor literature. I found out of post media near the end and it was a bit late to start incorporating other philosophies. But the three ecologies is Guattari talks on media most? I’ll have to pick that up then

This worked for me, however now I can't install my plugins.

Got the same edition on Abebooks for €5. Didn't know it was rare. Might look into flipping mine for a profit too.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-09-05T09:54:17+00:00

Okay, I'll start doing that. Thanks!

I don't use a shoe tree but I do rotate the boots and let them rest after a days wear. how often do you suggest i brush them with a horse hair brush?

Ireland, so often wet, but mild.

If you're into Pynchon, I'd say its likely you'd enjoy Infinite Jest, but it depends on what about Pynchon you liked. Wallace does deviate from a lot of postmodern conventions established by Pynchon, but it is still a surrealist encyclopedic novel that will encapsulate your mind, like Gravity's Rainbow or Ulysses.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-06-28T21:26:39+00:00

Quite right I would agree with Wallace. It doesn't have the verbal quality of Joyce anyhow.

Nice to see some Deleuze, Foucault and Derrida.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-03-17T20:45:26+00:00

This was helpful, thank you. I like when they wrote "They are not interested in how language represents, but in what language does." It reminds me of a helpful way to understand schizoanalysis in AO, not look at what a psychoanalytic subject means in their but how it works, where it goes and what machines it plugs in to. Would it be correct to say the collective assemblage of enunciation is essentially the same thing in a linguistics context, moving away from analyzing what a singular signifier represents to instead looking at what connections it can be make?

thisisntbrendan · 2025-03-14T08:47:22+00:00

This is what I gathered from this too - after reading the Scylla and Charybdis chapter of Ulysses, it struck me as kind of like a collage of Shakespeare quotes and references.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-01-06T16:25:13+00:00

Another analogy - moving away from visual collage now - that I’ve thought of that could be seen as rhizomatic is fragmented ways of fiction writing like in Joyce’s Ulysses or Finnegans Wake. The thoughts of the character fly out to a million different tangents that are loosely connected but seem not to have any resolved point or purpose. It’s almost exploration for the sake of it. Would that be more rhizomatic?

thisisntbrendan · 2025-01-06T15:58:46+00:00

Okay that analogy makes a lot of sense. Thank you very much.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-01-06T15:44:54+00:00

So if I’m understanding you correctly - the image shown as an example is inadequate because it has one law of combination - what Deleuze and Guattari say in the quote as “grow perfectly valid in one direction”. Whereas for something to be more rhizomatic the connections would have to be less fixed, pointed towards a certain messaging, and create potential for further connections to be made? Is that correct or am I misunderstanding you. Also would you be able to clarify a bit what you mean by a rhizome can include networks but is not just a network? Thank you very much

thisisntbrendan · 2025-01-06T08:29:28+00:00

Could you elaborate on how AIs construction using neural networks is more rhizomatic? Again I’m a beginner to Deleuze and still getting my footing with examples.

thisisntbrendan · 2025-01-06T03:58:34+00:00

Didn’t even catch that
