- Title
An Autoethnography of a Face.
- Authors
Kaufmann, Jodi
- Abstract
Deleuze and Guattari (1987) suggest that one is a hacceity, an individuation that is not an individual, and a Body without Organs (BwO), multiplicities on a plane of immanence. Hacceities and BwOs flow unimpeded. Without direction they continually change. But on earth, hacceities and BwOs often fold into a singular face as they submit to a machine of faciality, an abstract system that totally integrates signification and subjectification. In this poststructural autoethnography, the author plays with these ideas. Following flows and coagulations, the author uses prose, theory, and drawing to bring to the fore faces and bodies of herself.
