Program
Start at 14:00
Brief introduction to the day and introduction of invited people.
Screening:
Dr John Mullarkeys lecture Diagrammatic Actualism, ACTUAL VIRTUAL (selected half hour)
My argument is basically that, whereas Deleuze tends to think of his diagrams as virtual processes as only a potentially concrete (or actual) thing I believe that it is better to think of them as already actual processes.
touching on ideas relating to the working drawing, and the performative object.
