THE DOLL REVOLT

The Prosthetic Tour -- Docents' Talk

Girl straps on language, objects, and desire. She becomes a machine. Deleuze and Guattari assert that: "It is at work everywhere, functioning smoothly at times, at other times in fits and starts. It breathes, it heats, it eats. It shits and fucks. What a mistake to have ever said the id. Everywhere it is machines—real ones, not figurative ones; machines driving other machines, machines being driven by other machines, with all the necessary couplings and connections. An organ machine is plugged into an energy-source machine: the one produces flow that the other one interrupts." (Anti-Oedipus)
