Smooth space is filled by events or haecceities, far more than by formed and perceived things. It is a space of affects, more than one of properties. It is haptic rather than optical perception. Whereas in striated forms organize a matter, in the smooth materials signal forces and serve as symptoms for them.

Από το ίδιο γλωσσάρι:

haecceity [Latin for ‘thisness’]: a term taken from the medieval philosopher Duns Scotus to denote a ‘nonpersonal individuation’ of either a body or an environmental assemblage, a block of space-time (260-5). The concept of haecceity enables DG to write about the uniqueness of things or events without resorting to the traditional Aristotelian genus/species/individual scheme, which Deleuze rejects as subordinating difference to a horizon of identity (for example, DR: 30-5). In ATP, a body taken as a haecceity is defined in its cartography by its longitude (the ‘speeds and slowness’ of its material flows) and by its latitude (its set of affects) (260-1). An environmental assemblage, a ‘set of relations’ defined as a haecceity (382), treats spatio-temporal relations not as predicates of a thing (Aristotle’s categories include ‘where’ and ‘when’) but as dimensions of multiplicities, components of the assemblage (262). The semiotic of haecceities links indefinite article + proper name + infinitive verb (263-5). The indefinite article indicates that elements find their individuation in the assemblage, not from their form or subjectivity. The proper name, as in military naming of an operation or meteorological naming of a storm, indicates the event-character of the assemblage. The infinitive verb, ‘Aion’, expresses the time proper to the virtual realm.

Είχαμε κάπου αλλού συμφωνήσει ότι η αυτότητα δεν θα ήταν άσχημη απόδοση.

Είχαμε κάπου αλλού συμφωνήσει ότι η αυτότητα δεν θα ήταν άσχημη απόδοση.

Συμφωνώ, και προσθέτω προς επίρρωση άλλο ένα μικρό προσωπικό παράθεμα: υπάρχει μια τοπολογία εξαιρετικά λεπτή, που δεν βασίζεται σε σημεία ή σε αντικείμενα, αλλά σε αυτότητες, σε σύνολα σχέσεων (άνεμοι, κυματισμοί του χιονιού ή της άμμου, τραγούδι της άμμου ή τριγμοί του πάγου, απτές ιδιότητες των δύο).
