 Se o Ser for suposto como uma solução provisória, uma ontologia deve poder pensar seu inacabamento como realidade essencial de sua natureza. É nesse sentido que se coloca a ontologia de Gilles Deleuze, pronta a pensar, a partir daí, um estado do Ser a se caracterizar por movimentos de liberação de linhas que desarticulam o já formado e permitem suas determinações escapar das relações já individuadas. A partir da articulação da ontologia deleuzeana com as experiências de Fernand Deligny com crianças autistas não verbais, nos será possível confrontar as formas hegemônicas de existir com modos de existência singulares que se afirmam em sua diferença ingovernável. Refratários a serem adaptados a partir de qualquer medida padrão, constituindo-se como uma deriva às formas hegemônicas e um desvio que permite se escapar ao controle, tais experiências nos colocam diante de uma deriva que mantêm a perspectiva da desmesura de existências mínimas sempre inacabadas.Palavras-chave: Deleuze. Deligny. Ontologia. Autistas. Corpo sem órgãos. Deriva. Deleuze's Ontology and Deligny's Experiences: How to Establish ABSTRACTIf Being is supposed to be a provisional solution, an ontology must be able to think of its unfinished business as an essential reality of its nature. It is in this sense that Gilles Deleuze's ontology is placed, ready to think, from there, on a state of Being to be characterized by movements of liberation of lines that disarticulate what has already been formed and allow its determinations to escape from the relations already individuated. From the articulation of Deleuzian ontology with Fernand Deligny's experiences with non-verbal autistic children, it will be possible for us to confront the hegemonic forms of existence with singular modes of existence that assert themselves in their ungovernable difference. Refractories to be adapted from any standard measure, constituting a drift to hegemonic forms and a deviation that allows one to escape control, such experiences place us in front of a drift that maintains the perspective of the disproportion of minimal existences that are always unfinished.Keywords: Deleuze. Deligny. Ontology. Autistic. Body without organs. Drift.

O trabalho apresenta uma leitura da obra A Fúria do corpo, de João Gilberto Noll, a partir dos conceitos de Corpo sem Órgãos e Rizoma propostos pelos filósofos franceses Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari. Nesse sentido, objetiva estudar a construção identitária das personagens da referida narrativa, estabelecendo uma associação com essas noções filosóficas, problematizando, sobretudo, a errância das personagens e a linguagem utilizada para a composição da obra. Ao longo da leitura crítica, destacaremos como o texto de Noll nos desafia à construção de sentidos através de uma subjetividade constituída a partir de linhas de fuga, ideia discutida pelos filósofos supracitados. Ao adentrarmos no texto ficcional pelo viés de tais linhas, é possível entender como as personagens percebem e vivem suas experimentações rizomáticas. Desse modo, não se pretende aqui atribuir sentidos fechados à narrativa, mas sugerir que o Corpo sem Órgãos e o Rizoma são características que representam as experiências errantes das personagens encontradas na escrita de Noll.

THE RHIZOME AND THE IDEA OF BODY WITHOUT ORGANS IN THE FURY OF THE BODY, BY JOÃO GILBERTO NOLL Abstract: This paper presents a reading of The Fury of the Body, by João Gilberto Noll, based on the concepts of Body without Organs and Rhizome proposed by French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. It aims to study the characters’ identity construction, establishing an association with these philosophical notions, exploring, especially, the characters’ wandering nature and the language used in the composition of the work. Throughout this critical reading, emphasis will be given on the way Noll’s text challenge us to construct directions through a subjectivity built from escape lines, a concept defined by Deleuze and Guattari. By reading the narrative through these lenses, it is possible to understand how the characters perceive and live their rhizomatic trials. Thus, the intention here is not to attribute closed meanings to the narrative, but to suggest that the Body without Organs and the Rhizome are features that represent the characters’ wandering experiences in The Fury of the Body. Keywords: Contemporary Brazilian Literature. João Gilberto Noll. Identity. Body without Organs. Rhizome.

This article provides an exposition of four key concepts emerging in the encounter between the philosophical man of the theatre, Antonin Artaud, and the theatrical philosopher, Gilles Deleuze: the body without organs, the theatre without organs, the destratified voice and differential presence. The article proposes that Artaud's 1947 censored radio play To Have Done with the Judgment of God constitutes an instance of a theatre without organs that uses the destratified voice in a pursuit of differential presence – as a nonrepresentative encounter with difference that forces new thoughts upon us. Drawing from various works by Deleuze, including Difference and Repetition, The Logic of Sense, A Thousand Plateaus and ‘One Less Manifesto’, I conceive differential presence as an encounter with difference, or perpetual variation, as that which exceeds the representational consciousness of a subject, forcing thought through rupture rather than communicating meanings through sameness. Contra the dismissal of Artaud's project as paradoxical or impossible, the article suggests that his nonrepresentational theatre seeks to affirm a new kind of presence as difference, rather than aiming to transcend difference in order to reach the self-identical presence of Western metaphysics.

This chapter examines experimental screendances that disrupt the traditional notion of the body by constructing bizarre corporealities. The chapter analyzes films that display choreo-cinematic experimentations on body representation, such as those of Thierry De Mey, Laurent Goldring, Antonin De Bemels, Wim Vandekeybus, and Pierre Yves Clouin. These films present unconventional bodies that appear in turns animalistic, oversexualized (or differently sexualized), pathological, monstrous, and unidentifiable, undergoing all sorts of transformations and metamorphoses, thus resisting sociocultural, economic, and political processes of standardization of the body. The chapter argues that these screendance bodies are linked to the philosophical and political conceptualizations of the body by Maurice Merleau-Ponty (“openness to the world,” “corporeality”), Michel Foucault (“biopowers,”), and Gilles Deleuze (“body without organs,” “becomings,” “de-hierarchization of the body”). The chapter develops a reflection on screendance bodies, emphasizing that certain screendances also suggest philosophical and political issues that are embedded in their subversive representations of the body.

The aim of this article is to investigate and discuss the notions of difference and representation in Emmanuel Levinas and Gilles Deleuze, articulating such notions through the example of a university extension project involving the formation of a musical ensemble composed of autistic children. Our research involved a review of four major philosophical works—Emmanuel Levinas’ Totality and Infinity; Among Us: Essays On Alterity; and “The Concept Of Difference In Bergson”; and Gilles Deleuze’s Difference and Repetition--in addition to secondary references. The main articulations of the investigation carried out in the project consist of aspects such as: taking responsibility for the autistic child through cultivating asymmetrical relationships, a process that takes place through sensibility, below any representation; and not totalizing the alterity involved while maintaining, at the same time, its radical difference. In addition, there is an emphasis in the work on the difference of each child, beyond his or her diagnostic identity, understanding that all participants are undergoing unique processes of differentiation, and that some differences are not more privileged than others, in that that such hierarchies are determined by power relations. Another contribution of this research is the emphasis on the intensive affective flows of children, and the construction of relationships of mutual affection, which increases the circulation of vital energy in each one. Finally, the results of the project are offered as guidelines for clinical practice, and for the cultivation of a politics of difference, as an alternative to hegemonic practices in autism studies in contemporary times.

This article explores attempts by Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg to transcribe their drug experiences onto the written page. Utilizing both Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s work on intersubjective communication and Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s conception of the “Body Without Organs,” it argues that by writing “through the body,” Kerouac and Ginsberg are able to transmit the physical and emotional effects of the drug experience to the reader via the medium of the text. The reader thus receives not just an objective account of the drug experience, but becomes privy to the alterations in temporal perception and intersubjective empathy that drug use inaugurates.

RESUMENEste artículo es un intento de pensar lo que es el cuerpo a la luz de las filosofías de Gilles Deleuze y de Xavier Zubiri. Ambos pensadores han sido muy radicales en sus posiciones respecto al papel del sentir. A veces es más conocido, para algunos, el pensamiento deleuziano en torno al cuerpo y las sensaciones, pero la reflexión zubiriana es también una filosofía del cuerpo que a veces no ha sido atendida en su profundidad. Además, vemos que ambos pensadores tienen muchos puntos en común; uno de ellos es el denominado «Cuerpo sin órganos». Desde esta categoría deleuziana se indicará la proximidad con la filosofía zubiriana y con ello la importancia que cobra el cuerpo en una filosofía para los tiempos actuales.PALABRAS CLAVEDELEUZE, ZUBIRI, LÓGICA, IMPRESIÓN, SENSACIÓN, CUERPO SIN ÓRGANOS, INTELIGENCIA SENTIENTE.ABSTRACTThis article attempts to think what the body is from the perspective of the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and also from Xavier Zubiri. Both thinkers have been totally radicals in their positions concerning the role of sensations. It may sound more natural, for some, to associate Deleuze’s thought on body and sensations than that of Zubiri; but we have to acknowledge that the latter’s thought is also a philosophy of the body and, therefore, we shall attend it in its whole depth. Moreover, we have to recognize that both thinkers have lots of common points, one of them the so-called «Body without organs». From this deleuzian category will be indicated the proximity between deleuzian and zubirian philosophy; and with that the importance that acquires the body in a philosophy worth of our times.KEY WORDSDELEUZE, ZUBIRI, LOGIC, IMPRESSION, SENSATION, BODY WITHOUT ORGANS, SENTIENT INTELLIGENCE

The concept of “Body without Organs (BwO)” proposed by Gilles Deleuze (and Félix Guattari) is quite often overlooked both in the “post-Deleuzian” literature and in various systems/media theories. This paper aims to show the changes that might occur when introducing this concept in different discourses. Specifically, in terms of the systems theory, BwO resolves the paradox of “a certain system in the state of uncertainty” as well as opens the way to the neorationality; in the philosophy of life, it makes the zone of indistinguishability between life and death clearly visible; against the background of the identity politics, it becomes the guiding idea of liberation; while in the context of the media theory, it unfolds the mode of existence of the worlds of fantasy. The outcomes of this study may be useful not only for philosophers addressing the issues of systems, organizations, technics, media etc., or for political activists, but also for anyone interested in the philosophical heritage of Gilles Deleuze as well as in the development of his philosophical ideas.

The primary source of terror in Body Memory emerges from the lack of materiality underneath the unravelling body. Using Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s concept of the ‘body-without-organs’ this article discusses the biopolitical implications of representing the body as an assemblage of string.

O presente artigo pretende levantar alguns subsídios teóricos que possibilitem fundamentar uma concepção de corpo intensivo, ou seja, uma abordagem do universo corporal enquanto uma espécie de metafenômeno, privilegiando autores que construíram os seus pensamentos à luz da primazia da intensidade sobre a representação e da relevância maior da diferença sobre as identidades. Esta dimensão da corporeidade comparece em obras tais como as de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari, com o conceito de corpo sem órgãos, e no pensamento de José Gil, na noção de corpo paradoxal. Pretende-se ainda construir breves articulações entre estas concepções e algumas ideias propostas por Didier Anzieu e Daniel Stern no campo da psicanálise.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Corpo. Intensidade. Subjetivação. Contemporaneidade. ABSTRACT This article intends to raise some theoretical subsidies to ground a conception of an intensive body, that is, an approach of the bodily universe as a metaphenomenon, favoring authors who built their thoughts from the primacy of intensity over representation and from the greater relevance of difference over identities. This dimension of corporeity appears in works such as those of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, with the concept of body without organs, and in the thought of José Gil through the notion of paradoxical body. It also intends to build brief articulations between these conceptions and some of the ideas proposed by Didier Anzieu and Daniel Stern in the field of psychoanalysis.KEYWORDS: Body. Intensity. Subjectivation. Contemporaneity.

By taking as a point of departure quotations from the pianist Alfred Brendel, the composer Helmut Lachenmann and the philosopher Gilles Deleuze, I discuss music and philosophy as transformative practices. I first develop some of the implications in what Brendel, Lachenmann and Deleuze say, and show how it is possible to find connections between these characterizations of what music and listening involve. Based on this, I argue that they all point to a potential that musical practice harbors with regard to an expansion of cognition and consciousness. I then briefly present Hadot’s work on philosophy as a way of life and Deleuze’s conception of thinking as movement on the plane of immanence. On this background I argue that both music and thinking share a common ground, and that both can bring about an encounter with and elaboration of intensive forces. This experience, if cultivated and researched, can release latent potential in human consciousness and transform embodied cognition to what Deleuze and Guattari call “the body without organs”.
