Deleuze Guattari for Architects 1st Table of contents:

CHAPTER 1: Who?

• No longer ourselves

• …if, at some point, we felt that we knew who they were, then what would it be that we would know?

• It’s nice to talk like everyone else, to say that the sun rises, when everybody knows it’s only a manner of speaking.

• Character-defining questions

• …in Savannah the first question people ask you is ‘What would you like to drink?’

• Both identities are real. They are both roles that she knows how to play.

• Identity is political, in that it is generated through our relations with others.

• …for the kind of architect who wants to be stimulated into extending the range of what life has to offer, Deleuze and Guattari’s attitudes will immediately be congenial.

• Lines of flight

• …a horizon that was there all along, behind the things that were close at hand in everyday life.

• …the asceticism of the determined artist can turn out to have been a formula for mania, alcoholism or anorexia.

• A body can be anything: it can be an animal, a body of sounds, a mind or an idea; it can be a linguistic corpus, a social body, a collectivity.

• What they can help us to do is to keep common sense at bay.

• Away from the flock

• ‘Men believe they are free,’ said Spinoza, ‘precisely because they are conscious of their volitions and desires; yet concerning the causes that have determined them to desire and will they have not the faintest idea.’

• Backgammon

• Deterritorialization

• …perhaps one day, this century will be known as Deleuzian.

CHAPTER 2: Machines

• Swarming

• …that the spinning of the earth is what drives the pistons of sexual coupling.

• The case of Schreber

• Given a certain effect, what machine is capable of producing it? And given a certain machine, what can it be used for?

• What the schizophrenic experiences … [is] nature as a process of production.

• The machine as a whole might be producing desert where there was forest, but each individual in the machine might be doing very well out of it along the way…

• Once the machines are assembled, they have an identity and a life of their own.

• The book of the machines

• The machine is composed of organic and inorganic parts…

• Do the machines work for us, or do we work for them?

• Down with trees

• …in the West, the tree has implanted itself in our bodies.

• It is set up not as a set of dogmas or even of questions, but as a set of values. It is a work of ethics.

• Abstract machine

• The wild girl of Châlons did not mean to eat her sister, but couldn’t help herself.

• Immanence

• The dusty leaves seemed to be moving into formation…

• …somehow one comes away with the sense that the scene has spiritual significance…

• A swarm of slime mould…

• We are political all the way down to the unconscious bodily responses that we could not call ‘thoughts’.

• Network

• The body

• Renaissance drawings show grids of squares…

• He lived for a long time without a stomach…

• The body without organs is a state of creativity…

CHAPTER 3: House

• Plateau

• Actual buildings

• …we differ from the monkeys… but resemble the numerous rodents…

• …the interdependent voices of singers and instruments…

• Oak leaves arranged in the form of tiles…

• We require just a little order to protect us from chaos.

• Orpheus and Ariadne

• Consolidation

• The poets succeed by simplifying…

• ‘…the pleasure of feeling my divisions…’

• ‘…sufficiently solid BLOCKS of wrought material…’

• Dionysus knows no other architecture than that of routes and trajectories.

• House, earth, territory

CHAPTER 4: Façade and Landscape

• A walk in the mountains

• There is no such thing as either man or nature now, only a process…

• White wall, black hole

• Signifying

• Radomes

• Deserts

CHAPTER 5: City and Environment

• A little order

• Environment – milieu

• It makes no sense to think that an organism stands a chance of survival independently of its milieu…

• …form corresponds to what the man in command has thought to himself…

• Disconnecting

• From outside and above it looks deceitful…

• Emergent form

• Form and frame

• Look at the mountain, once it was fire.

• …aim to give voice to the song of the Earth…

• …one opens up to chaos…
