Multiplicity
As far as I can tell, everything is multiple — which shifts the demands of life. For if everything is in fact multiple, how do we articulate it? How do we seek it? Amplify it? The will to multiplicity is different than the will to the definitive; this will can be found in irony, in humor, in Monty Python, Louis CK, Clarice Lispector, Derrida, Deleuze & Guattari.
Discussed here: the new SFMoMA, Beyonce, ambivalent feelings about cops, Deleuze and Guattari, Louis CK, how to speak multiplicity, Monty Python, and more!
