Multiplicity?
Yep. Get used to the word if you plan
on reading any D&G. Multiplicity is a very imporant term.
But like most important terms in D&G, it's almost impossible
to pin down a succinct definition. Remember the breast-machine,
mouth-machine, etc? That's a mulitplicity. A system of connections.
D&G also reject any kind of binary between the one and the
multiple:
“It is not a problem of the One and the Multiple but of
a fusional multiplicity that effectively goes beyond any opposition
between the one and the multiple…There is a continuum
of the intensities in substance.” (154).
Hmmm.
