“Good sense fixes limits. As he says in The Logic of Sense, good sense is essentially “agricultural, inseparable from the agrarian problem, the establishment of enclosures.”83 It “territorializes” (AO). This territorialization bears on both subjects and objects. It transforms the “indeterminate object” into a “this or that,” and it “individualizes” a determinate “self.”84 Good sense is a “quantitative synthesis of difference” (DR 226), Deleuze writes. It cancels intensity, binds it, and transforms it into “extensity,” thus giving it spatial coordinates it never had in the intensive flux.”

“forms concepts which do not have a correlate in experience, the idea of God for example: “The idea of God is in a sense opposed to common notions in that they always apply to things that can be imagined, while God cannot be imagined.”39 Put only slightly differently, the understanding forms concepts which can be applied to experience. Reason forms concepts under which all experience belongs but which can never be an object of experience or Ideas.40”

“merely aesthetic. It is also a major characteristic of his account of perception. We can see this if we note that “composition” is a complex word in this context. What Deleuze and Guattari directly mean in What is Philosophy? is simply that art pertains to what they call the “plane of composition.”
