Massumi, Brian. A User's Guide to Capitalism and Schizophrenia: Deviations from Deleuze
For Deleuze and Guattari, "the clinical schizophrenic's debilitating detachment from the world is a quelled attempt to engage it in unimagined ways... It's twoness is a relay to multiplicity." p.1
"A Thousand Plateaus (1980), written over a seven-year period is less a critique than a sustained, constructive experiment in schizophrenic or "nomad", thought." p.4
"State philosophy is grounded in a double identity: of the thinking subject, and of the concepts it creates and to which it lends its own presumed attributes of sameness and constancy." p.4
"The collusion between philosphy and the State was most explicitly enacted in the first decade of the nineteenth century with the foundation of the University of Berlin, which was to become the model for higher learning throughout Europe and the U.S. The goal laid out for it by Wilhelm von Humboldt... was the "spiritual and moral training of the nation," to be achieved by "deriving everything from an original principle" (truth), by "relating everything to an ideal" (justice", and by "unifying this principle and this ideal in a single Idea" (the State)." p.4
One point from A Thousand Plateaus "nomad thought is not confined to philosophy. Better, that it is a kind of philosophy that comes in many forms." p.6
"For Deleuze and Guattari, a plateau is reached when circumstances combine to bring an activity to a pitch of intensity that is not automatically dissipated in a climax leading to a state of rest. The heightening of energies is sustained long enough to leave a kind of afterimage of its dynamism that can be reactivated or injected into other activities, creating a fabric of intensive states between which any number of connecting routes could exist." p.7
