“…exploring distinct layers of connectivity that compose a body in terms of intensive degrees of affinities – that is, nonexact measures – rather than given categories. These affinities are mental, social, technological, biological, desiring, physical, intuitive and perceptual, and operate beneath (and across) the macroaggregations of positions such as gender, class, race, as well as human, animal and machine. Hence a body always entails an environment of relations between distinct milieus, which are however associated by intensive – amodal or virtual – links. Such links are arranged in accord with velocities of compositions – speeds and slownesses of conjunctions and disjunctions – and affective impingement – the non-emotional yet felt activities amongst bodies triggering transformations in the states and conditions of each composition. There is no inherent naturalness in such ecology since this latter envelops a primary process of relational invention. … Relations therefore are never relations between parts summed up together to make the same whole. Rather machinic relationality entails a primary invention of the new out of mismatching connections between the abstract and concrete worlds of a body.”

“There is no authentic or essential woman up ahead, no self to be reclaimed from some long lost past, nor even a potential subjectivity to be constructed in the present day. Nor is there only an absence or lack. Instead there is a virtual reality, an emergent process for which identity is not the goal but the enemy, precisely what has kept at bay the matrix of potentialities from which women have always downloaded their roles”
