Practising with Deleuze: Design, Dance, Art, Writing, Philosophy

by Suzie Attiwill, Terri Bird, Andrea Eckersley

Six authors – two fine artists, a dancer, a creative writer, a designer and a philosopher – participate in the first systematic reading of Gilles Deleuze's mature philosophy through the lens of creative practice. For arts practitioners, this book provides a way to engage creatively with the ideas of Deleuze; for philosophers, it maintains a rigorous relationship to Deleuze’s texts including Difference and Repetition and A Thousand Plateaus , and demonstrates how to engage conceptually with arts practitioners. Practising with Deleuze is focused around key aspects of forming, framing, experiencing, encountering and practising. These multiple dialogues reflect the engagement of contemporary creative practices with the generative philosophy of Deleuze.
