methods of communication alison

methods of communication

As for the path forward - I have to think of the
book 'a thousand
plateaus' by de leuze and guattari (mille plateaux
originally) and
their ideas around rhizomes - or rather the system
of the rhizome
(bulbs and tubers are examples of rhizomes).

How could this eccentric/eclectic/ergonomic collection of individuals function?
A few quotes: Principles of connection and
heterogenity: any point of a
rhizome can be connected to anything other, and must
be....
A rhizome ceaselessly establishes connections
between semiotic chains,
organisations of power, and circumstances relative
to the arts,
sciences and the social struggles....
Principle of multiplicity....
What place could language have in this process?
There is no mother tongue, only a power takeover by
a dominant language
within a political mulitplicity. language stabilises
around a parish, a
bishopric , a capital. It forms a bulb. It evolves
by subterranean
stems and flows, along river valleys or train
tracks: it spreads like a
patch of oil...
How could we approach topics like emotional paralysis/ natural apocalypse etc etc?
Principle of asignifying rupture: a rhizome may be
broken, shattered at
a certain spot, but it will start up again on one of
its old lines or
on new lines.
etc etc

sorry, not more comes out tonight...
greetings
alison
