Rhizome Over Tree Thinking
- Deleuze and Guattari replace arborescent totalities with rhizomes to emphasize multiplicities over singular unities.
- Engaging a rhizome dissolves subject/object splits and foregrounds connections across a plane of consistency.
Soccer Field Example
- Guignion illustrates the plane of consistency with kids turning a field, shoes, and a ball into a soccer game and identities.
- The field is a body without organs and the game temporarily territorializes those elements into roles.
Territorialize, Deterritorialize, Repeat
- Territorialization is always paired with deterritorialization and reterritorialization in dynamic cycles.
- A rhizome both maps intensities and evades final capture by temporary strata.
