Other Things Seen, Other Things Heard, solo performance by Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, 1977. How I wish I could have witnessed her.
The question posed by desire is…‘How does it work?’ How do these machines, these desiring-machines, work–yours and mine? With what sort of breakdowns as a part of their functioning? How do they pass from one body to another? How are they attached to the body without organs? What occurs when their mode of operation confronts the social machines?[…][T]he greatest force of language was only discovered once a work was viewed as a machine, producing certain effects, amenable to a certain use…[b]ut on condition that meaning be nothing other than use, that it become a firm principle only if we have at our disposal immanent criteria capable of determining the legitimate uses, as opposed to the illegitimate ones that relate use instead to a hypothetical meaning and re-establish a kind of transcendence. Analysis termed transcendental is precisely the determination of these criteria, immanent to the field of the unconscious, insofar as they are opposed to the transcendent exercises of a ‘What does it mean?’ Schizoanalysis is at once a transcendental and a materialist analysis.
