for l.w.t.
From Brian Massumi, Parables for the Virtual
p. 50

"The objectness of the object is attenuated as the subject, seeing itself as others see it,                                                     comes to occupy the object's place as well as its own."

finally, we have a man who loves the machine in a way that it tasteful, not bland and does not delude itself with a Deluezian pscyhoanalysis so rich that it sticks out like a sore prosthetic thumb.  Planes of sensation and the inability to capture affection, not the limitations of the cock and shape shifting of hormones, are the lines of thought. Rethinking and retooling our approach to old questions and way of doing, finding the boundaries of our old enemies (capitalism) and the limits of biopower (legislation) and punishment (confession, asylum), Massumi traces the gaps in a thick example laden examination.
