Deleuze and Guattari: Anti-Oedipus (week 9)

~New location again~

Deterritorialize with us at weekly discussions of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's 1972 first volume of their groundbreaking Capitalism and Schizophrenia. This critique of Freudian psychoanalysis and modern capitalism reframes unconscious desire as a machinic productive force, dynamic multiplicities of flows that can be directed against fascistic thinking toward creative and revolutionary action.

Required reading for this meeting: Ch. 3 "Savages, Barbarians, Civilized Men" sections 10–11 (pg. 240–271)

There's an online PDF available that looks like it might have a few scanning issues, but it seems to mostly align with the widely available Penguin edition. We plan to meet weekly and work our way through the whole book 20–40 pages at a time.

We'll be meeting at Spring Cafe Aspen in Greenwich Village, at tables either inside or outside. We should be easy to find.
