Deleuzian materialists on HN!
Deleuze and de Landa were my primary inspirations during graduate architecture school. I wrote about how such thinking might be incorporated into a web design.[1]

- steveklabnik 14y agoHaha, the soap bubble: yep, that's de Landa alright. Great post, I really enjoyed it. You know, something about de Landa bothers me a bit, maybe you can chew on this and sometime, we'll discuss it: he wants to "de-postmodernize Deleueze" (even though he's careful that Deleuze isn't pomo, just that he uses dense words), but I'm not entirely sure that you can really separate, say, A Thousand Plateaus from the performative properties of the text. It seems strange to me that a materialist would want to remove the ideas from the primary material that they came from. That said, he does a damn good job of making it a bit more accessible, especially to technologists.
