Late collaborative work by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari defining philosophy as the creation of concepts, distinguished from science (functions on a plane of reference) and art (affects and percepts on a plane of composition).
Philosophy is concept creation on a plane of immanence; science creates functions on a plane of reference; art creates affects and percepts on a plane of composition. Each is a distinct mode of thinking with no hierarchy among them.
No conceptual lineage found.
No recorded contemporaries.
No recorded minds influenced.
No conceptual posterity found.
