Intensity, Virtuality, and the Structure of Time (part 2)

[@exlauslegale8534]

21:55 Novalis, who was German romantic poet _and_ auditor of a salt mine, stepped into Deleuze's philosophy mainly through Gilbert Simondon who mentions Novalis in his _Individuation and its physical-biological genesis_ in the chapter titled: "Individuation as genesis of crystal forms starting from the amorphous state". To connect crystals with time see chapter four of Deleuze's _Cinema 2_ book: "The crystals of time". Btw, I want to congratulate you for the wonderful work you've done, your KZbin videos are, imo, better than BBC documentaries. In the last couple of days since I discovered your channel I learned so much on the connotations of Deleuze's philosophy on the actual state of philosophy. Now I can say that, thanks to you, I, as a non-native speaker, understand much better contemporary internet _discourse_ (mem[e]ing and trolling) and even attitudes of some "philosophical" channels (for example Zer0Books, where D. Lane took over from M. Fisher, and Justin "I am a PHD" Murphy's Second Life). Under the title of Accelerationism I can only say that Nick Land did to Deleuze the same thing that Deleuze did to some other philosophers, namely took him from behind doggystyle and created a monster.

Dude where do you find english translation of Simondon's individuation book?

I love this. It's like picking out the lost, unused bits of philosophy to build an entirely new perception.

This is one of the most underrated YT channels rn. Come to NYC some day, lemme buy you a beer.

[@HahnenschreidesPositivismus]

I'm not complaining that it took so long to make this video, but I've been anticipating it for so long and wished to see it pop up in my youtube inbox for so many times that it actually felt like a Christmas morning when it dropped. With Deleuze, I think you really did a great job explaining how he expanded the concepts of virtuality and intensity, because if you would've gone around explaining immanence, univocity, multiplicity, concepts and so on, this video might get a lot longer and a lot less comprehensive. You did an amazing job focusing on time tbh and now I realized I might need to reread Difference and Repetition. An important addage to the concept of virtual would be is its simulacral nature of self-difference, being a pure multiplicity or difference in kind, maybe even adding a pre-individual non-human analogy of genetic expression, where the genetic code is the virtual actualised in certain features (proteins). As far as I understand it, Bergsonian virtual is much more based in psychology where Deleuze expands it into the plane of imanence, as the flow of time is actualisation of the virtual.

Can’t wait for part 3 bro.

[@goodleshoes]

Great series.

[@tadeogonzalez5645]

Hey, this is crazy, just yesterday I checked your channel after many months to find you'd posted part one of this series, and I wake up and here's part two! Looks great man.

[@TheDangerousMaybe]

I need Part 3 on teleoplexy now! You have me fiending harder than the amphetamine god.

[@iassndksdfasfsd1297]

I didn't understand anything in this video but it sparked my curiosity in this field of thought.

[@breadtoucher]

amazing work dude! I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel a month ago! Your work is simply amazing, thank you very much!

[@jessie1906]

i loved this, but not gonna lie i had to pause the video to make sense of it every ten seconds

[@JK-hr6py]

I really enjoy these videos, and I like how you use audiovisual cut up technique to make some of your video sections. William Burroughs would be proud.

[@jadeaslain6327]

Awesome lecture series. Your quote at 33:08 "Habit is the originary synthesis of time..." is cited as page 230, but it is on page 80.

[@louisaltena4309]

Missed this when it came out but really interesting to watch after I just finished an essay on Heidegger. Ties into a lot of other stuff I've been reading/watching/learning about marathon swimming and the theory of predictive mind.

[@NotaDrDoom]

Thank you for this.

[@shrewdagency6588]

Absolutely cracking stuff

[@Summonpouchit]

Extensity as yang, intensity as yin, difference as chi; the life-enabling force. Time cannot be thought of without rhythm which is the mechanism through which we intuit it. In music rhythm does not exist without difference. It is the distance between one note and the next that determines rhythmic quality. The repetition of the note produces the difference that we feel as rhythm. Oscillation, harmonics, frequency, vibration. There isnt a phenomena that cant be reduced to that. The tempo of the heart circulating blood, the rise and fall of the breath are how human intuition machines the present. Irregular patterns of breathing create blockages, disjunctions in the internal time of the body, disease. Accurate rhythm, controlled movement, steady breath; tai chi as praxis of the eternal return.

[@evilfungas]

Great video, my only pedant’s complaint is your strange dismissal of Heidegger (Heidegger’s whole point is that every disclosure is a disclosure of closure; they belong to the same surface)

[@NotActually]

Wasn't meant to be a dismissal! I have a great deal of respect for Heidegger's work. Personally I couldn't see Deleuze talking about the virtual in terms of aletheia, but to be frank you very well could be right here. I have spent a long time studying Heidegger (I even studied under a Heideggarian in university) and yet I still feel like there is a lot to his system I don't fully get.

[@name-zk7ro]

Hello where is part 3 ? Or the land continuation ? I would love to understand more about accelerationist time and how it differs from the deluezian model
