*(and of course there is always Avrum Stroll's _Surfaces._)

I am not concerned about a critical analysis of the Anti-Oedipus on
Design-L, you won't even get it on the Deleuze-Guattari list. I think I had
a middle ground in mind. Nor am I interested in propogating an
authoritative reading of DeleuzeoGuattari as there is none. We can at best
consider the translation of his theory into an other discipline and that is
what _Negotiations_ suggests and by the way, "Postscript" is in there and
is the best translation to date.  Deleuze is not merely skeptical of
technology and capitalism, he is critical of the corportation as model for
all and wants us to create new "weapons."  That is what I have tried to do
with hypersurface. Also Deleuze says that smooth space is impossible
without striated space so I am not looking for a totality. Seamlessness
will have to break down in order to work.  But I am glad that you are up on
D+G and that there might be a transdisciplinary discussion established,
especially since John Young is also a member of the d+g list, I believe.
Finally, of course, _Anti-O_ is essential, and is for my thesis as well, as
it accesses the unconscious through Capitalism's schizophrenia.
