Aaron Davis (https://collect.readwriterespond.com/)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideodromeI had never seen Videodrome. It felt like a film that leaves many questions. It made me want to dig back into Deleuze and the body without organs. The concept of the body without organs was mainly defined by Deleuze and Guattari in the two volumes of their work Capitalism and Schizophrenia, Anti-Oedipus and A Thousand Plateaus.[11] In both books, the abstract body is defined as a self-regulating process—created by the relation between an abstract machine and a machinic assemblage “Assemblage (philosophy)”)—that maintains itself through processes of homeostasis and simultaneously limits the possible activities of its constituent parts, or organs.[12] The body without organs is the sum total intensive and affective activity of the full potential for the body and its constituent parts.[13] Source: Body Without Organs by Wikipediaᔥ “Jim Groom” in AI106: Long Live the New Flesh | bavatuesdays (01/01/2024 21:36:56)
I keep running into references of Deleuze lately myself, so it may be time to pull some of his works off the shelf.
