[D-G] D&G reading group...a merry band

It's interesting mb,
if academics give "poets" the power
to disuade them (from borderlines),
but not the other way around...

You comment brought me to this quote from ATP...

"If the anomalous is neither an individual nor a species,
then what is it?" (D&G)

Like Captain Ahab's white whale,
his white wall, his becoming-Moby Dick...

"That the anomalous is the borderline makes it easier for us
to understand the various positions it occupies in relation to
the pack or the multiplicity it borders, and the various positions
occupied by a fascinated Self...In any event, the pack has a
borderline, and an anomalous position, whenever in a given space
an animal is on the line or in the act of drawing the line in relation to
that which all the other members of the pack will fall into one
of two halves, left or right : a peripheral poisition, such that it is
impossible to tell if the nomalous is still in the band, already outside
the band, or at the shifting boundary of the band." (D&G)

>From their amazing writing machine to this list...


(This is not a poem.)

This listserv is a contradiction and yet I'm inclined to reply. I will
however
attempt to say SOMETHING. The rhizome may start in the middle but its
existence
needs a line of flight that is always productive. So, do I attach my
thoughts
and words to revolution even if I think it is anti-experiment? OR do I urge
politely that people ELABORATE their cryptic thoughts?
