you know, sometimes I think this would be the only thing valuable here: the
absolute multiplication of discourses; the overproduction beyond all
possible limits, all possible censure. Isn't that really the spirit that
Foucault would share with Deleuze? ("Never interpret, ... experience,
experiment"). Creation, new lines of flight: thinking, words, shooting out
in every direction. I mean this in friendship Colin. Life's quite
literally too short to be bitter. We should be laughing our asses off.
By the way, it is my sincere belief that nothing is ultimately
quarantined in this world, and thus, yes--everything can possibly run
through the body of Foucault. All the better; let's bend everything to our
will.

a rash, but happy statement of possibly no meaning.


be well,
ian
