Subject: AUT: Deleuze & biology


First point.  Biology is NOT important for Deleuze in
the way this little "critique" makes out.

Second point.  If Deleuze goes against dominant
assumptions in biology, this doesn't necessarily mean
Deleuze is wrong.  It could mean he is pioneering
something beyond a paradigm shift yet to affect
biology, or that he is talking in a different
discourse.

So all of this is of very little significance.  The
Deleuzian point is to MAKE ONESELF a body without
organs - which may be an exercise of desire, AGAINST
the coding apparatuses of biological "science" as a
system of biopower.
