Re: deleuzianism or deleuzianist...

adrian,

You gave me a fascinating response -- thank you -- I'm still digesting it, so 
forgive me for not responding in more detail.

I think, though, that I may be able to better summarize my original point as 
follows: your original question regarding understanding and experience in 
Deleuze seems, to me, to have as its implicit center some notion of 
authenticity . . . but, I want to ask, how much relevance does a notion like 
authenticity have in a Deleuzean context?  Wouldn't the more interesting 
question be one of use?  What about Deleuze and his 
works/thoughts/texts/machines/concepts is useful to you?  And how do you put 
them to use?  What works and what doesn't?  Authenticity just seems fairly 
irrelevant to me in light of such questions . . . but then maybe I'm just 
damning myself because this response to you is a sort of seeking of Deleuzean 
authenticity . . . ?   I don't know . . .
