deleuze (and guattari)

About 1/3rd of the way through Anti-Oedipus at the moment - I suspect that I'll end up disagreeing with a lot of it*, but if nothing else it's as wild a ride as I was hoping for and just great for clearing mental bad air.

*(At least in terms of their positive thesis about how desire works - in terms of the more critical/polemical side of things, dunking on psychoanalysis is obv always fun but no longer feels like a v urgent project).

Keep resisting the urge to skip through to the parts where they discuss deterritorialization & reterritorialization in detail, because those are the concepts that to me seem the most relevant to geopolitical events of the last few years - but at this stage I'm committed to doing the whole thing properly.

hahahahahah!!!!!

alas it is not true, the ages don't work

There is a resemblance, yes. But Julien, son of Gilles, is born in 1960, making him 58. This Julien graduated from his engineering school in 2002. So a relation perhaps but not Deleuze's son. Sorry to spoil the fun.

Marxism is back

deleuze (and touche)

D&G are a classic example of where their enemies tell you more about themselves qua enemies than they do about D&G

deleuze and guattari vs. dolce & gabbana
