[...]e” with “alliances”*

[sometimes leadership] inhibits the installation of stable powers, in favor of a fabric of immanent relations (--> could we say that about Iran today?)

diffusion of prestige

(Deleuze and Guattari:)
types/organs that center around organs of power:
rhizome
=/= aborescent
family (aborescent type that centers around organs of power --structuring--> centralized societies) =/= pack (bands, rhizome)

State =/= perpetual blackmail by abandonment or betrayal (--> Iran)
==>{
large-scale projects
constitution of surpluses
organization of the corresponding public functions
on-the-spot emergence (--> kinda magical, and monstrous, miraculous)

war machine: a counter-State mechanism
realized completely in: the “barbaric” assemblages of nomadic warriors (=/= “savages” assemblages of primitive societies)
-problem: it cannot relay

Deleuze and Guattari ask: so, why did the State triumph?

the fable of Urstaat: the State clearly dates back to the most remote ages of humanity

law of the State --> interior and exterior, Sovereignty only reigns over what it is capable of internalizing, of appropriating locally
=/= the rights of segmentary societies

_~*neoprimitivism*~_

polymorphous war machine

commercial circuit...
religious creation...



(Deleuze and Guattari's) space:
*smooth:
vectorial ↗️⤴️↘️↞
projective 📹
topological 🐍 (=/= geometrical)

--> *space is occupied without being counted*
=/=
*striated:
metric -|-|-|-|-
-
--> *space of counted without being occupied*



“minor science” (in which, model are:)
1. hydraulic =/= hylomorphic
2. of becoming and heterogeneity
3. goes from a curvilinear declination to the formation of spirals and vortices on an inclined plane (=/= from straight line to its parallels) --> vortical
4. *****problematic(==> event --to go from a problem to the accidents that both condition and resolve it ==> [all kinds of] deformations, transmutations, passages to the limit, each figure designates an “event”) =/= theorematic(==> essence --theorematic: to go by specific differences from a genus to its species, or by deduction from a stable essence to the properties deriving from it) [--> make your model problematic, not affirmed by theoretical bullshit! --> my performances are about trying to find a way of not being theorematic while doing theory]***** (and they say ‘problematic’ the problem it is not an “obstacle”)
=/= “royal science”: reducing the “problem-element” and subordinate it to the “theorem-element.” State needs to subordinate hydraulic force ==> prevent turbulence (----> Middle East =? distributed turbulence across a smooth space [<-- fucked up], [in smooth space:] vortical movement that can rise up at any point)
civil
static
ordinal
/matter --assigned-to--> content
/form --assigned-to--> expression
~= hylomorphic: implying both a form that organizes matter and a matter prepared for the form (=/= hydraulic) <== *a society divided into governors and governed*
--> State science (appropriates and transforms the elements of:)
=/= “nomadic science” (Homeland TV series suggesting US government is a nomadic science: viewpoint of affections + nomadic operation of rogue CIA operatives + presidential decentralized power dynamic)
becoming
heterogeneity
infinitesimal
passage
--> in tune with the connection between content and expression, ***essentially laden with singularities*** (--> my lectures? an art, a technique, a science : following the connections between singularities of matter and traits of expression, they seize or determine singularities in the matter =/= constituting a general form)
=/= *chaotic science* (--> what kind of figure of engineer? @Sina)

*the problemata* --> vortices & projections [~~?--> chaotic imagination]
(projected into an abstract knowledge --?--> mapping knowledges)

State science --> Star Trek
imposes its form of Sovereignty on the inventinos of nomad sciencet

to administrate projections --> submit (war machine) to civil and metric rules that strictly limit, control, localize (nomad science)

“rhythm =/= turbulence”


cursing of a river*


Gothic conquered a smooth space --> the cutting of the stone (=/=? digital) + ‘plane of projection’: a plane limit, a series of successive approximations or placings-in-variations
=/= Romanesque remained striated space --> vault depends on the juxtaposition of parallel pillars


--D+G--> ***one does not represent, one engenders and traverses***
[*to engender: give you a baby from behind. *to traverse: zigzagging]
--democracy--> one represents visually
--Sina--> one suggests chaotically


roadways (well-centralized administration) =/= bridges (active, dynamic, collective experimentation)

lobby: a group with fluid contours, whose position is very ambiguous in relation to the State it wishes to influence

(for Ibn Khaldun:) war machine: families or lineages + esprit de corps

pouvoir (monopoly of an organic power) =/= puissance (a vortical body in a nomad space)

(to address the) vague = vagabond, nomadic, morphological essences (=/= ideal, royal, imperial essences) = haecceities
{for example the circle is an organic, ideal, fixed essence, but roundness is a vague and fluent essence, distinct both from the circle and things that are round (a vase, a wheel, a sun)}--> State is perpetually producing and reproducing ideal circles =/= war machine makes something round

Agnes drawings --> protogeometry
Agnes = drwaing and linking up smooth space

(is Finn in Adventure Time a man of State ot nomadic scientist? -->) journey-men's associations

nomadic <==form== masons, carpenters, smiths
labor <== regulating the movement of the flow of labor, assigning it channels and conduits, forming corporations, relying on forced manpower recruit

(plane of) consistency ~= composition =/= (place of) organization ~= formation

***everything is about the division of labor*** (--> this is the most critical about apass)

State:
repress the nomad
repress the minor science
oppose vague essences (--> visa and integration)
operative geometry of the trait
=/= nomad imply a division of labor opposed to the norms of State


Steven: a dynamic connection between support and ornament =/= Alex's hylomorphic schema (the search for laws in extracting constants --> an invariable form for variables [for Alex: the invariable definition of artistic research for variable artists])

compars =/= dispars

(let's go) from matter-form --to--> material-force(= placing the variables themselves in a state of continous variation)
[Sina: let's go instead of thinking about ‘flow’ --to--> ‘force']
force (is full of):
equations “=”
adequations (change in the meaning of a term depending upon context)
inequations “=/=
differential equations (functions + derivatives --> useful for modeling and simulating physical phenomena) --> solution of a differential equation is a function =/= algebraic equations (solution of an algebraic equation is a value)



planet, cyber, robot species, transform, interface, partial digestion, moon, 3*'1G  (.* [source: The Transformers The Movie 1986] (distribution of matter in:)
space of pillars
striated by the fall of bodies
verticals of gravity
parallel layers

quantitative and scientific oppsositions (such as: speed/slowness, quick/weighty, celeritas/gravitas)
=/= qualitative oppsositions
=/= mythological structures


(i am basically interested in the law of falling bodies)

(my lectures: an art of) following =/= flowing
-one never follows in order to reproduce
-in following, one is in search of singularities of a matter
(my whole work has been about the art of being carried away by the vortical flow of texts)--> [*]ajayeb ~= a vertical field across which singularities are scattered like so many accidents (i see them as ‘problems,’ and my job is to follow them)
