Un film problématise en images et en sons ce dont il traite. Le type d’analyse faisant apparaître cette relation étroite entre les formes du contenu et les formes de l’expression est l’analyse figurative. En voici la méthode exposée par Nicole Brenez en 1998 dans De la figure en général et du corps en particulier. Tout d’abord, il doit être admis que le film prime sur son contexte. Ensuite, les composantes d’un film sont des éléments. Puis, ces éléments sont autant de questions. Enfin, le cinéma problématise ce dont il traite. Seulement, ces quatre présupposés ne vont pas de soi. Ils induisent un double mouvement : le film pose des exigences à l’analyse que seule l’analyse rend visibles. Ce double mouvement dépasse le film pour questionner le cinéma. Cette thèse a pour but de démontrer que, d’une part, l’analyse figurative trouve ses fondements dans l’histoire du cinéma et que, d’autre part, grâce à des analyses figuratives, nous pouvons mettre à jour des changements dans le fonctionnement des images, du montage, des personnages. La méthodologie de l’analyse filmique repose par conséquent sur une étude historico-esthétique des formes cinématographiques. Or, ces formes sont autant de façons de penser le cinéma et de penser au cinéma. C’est précisément la circulation entre les formes du contenu, les formes de l’expression et les formes de l’analyse qui rend visible ce champ sensible d’expérimentations qu’est le film – une pensée-cinéma. / What is a cinematographic thought? A film theorized with images and sounds what it is dealing with. The methodology of film analysis which reveals that close relationship between images, sounds and thought is figurative. It was exposed in Nicole Brenez De la figure en général et du corps en particulier in 1998. First, the analyst must consider that the film is more important than its context. Next, its components shall be understood as elements. Then, those elements are regarded as questions. Finally, the film has to be considered as an interrogation of its subject. However, those four steps aren’t necessarily clear. They lead to a double thought: the film forces the analysis to include elements that are only made visible with the analysis. This double thought goes beyond the film and questions cinema itself. This study’s aim is to prove that a figurative analysis finds its foundations within the history of cinema, and due to these analyses, the changes regarding the construction of the image, editing, and character can be revealed. This methodology lies on an historical and aesthetic study of the cinematographic forms. Those forms are the way cinema thinks. Emerging from this relationship of a form, its expression, and its analysis is a sensitive field of experimentations: a cinematographic thought. / Thèse réalisée en cotutelle avec l'Université de Provence au sein du département d’études cinématographiques, U.F.R.

In Peter Weiss debut Från ö till ö (1947) the ‘I’ travels from island to island as a castaway. The island here can signify, or work as a synecdoche for exile and the feeling of isolation that exile often induces. But the movement from island to island also implies a restless state: Peter Weiss shifting from painting to writing to filmmaking and theatre, from German to Swedish and then back to German. The years during exile and the years that followed the exile until his breakthrough in Germany with Schatten des körpers des Kütchens (1960), Abschied von den Eltern (1961) and Fluchtpunkt (1962), were the formative years of Peter Weiss authorship. In Sweden he abandoned a Hesse-influenced new-romanticism – an aesthetical and political dead-end in the 1940s – and oriented towards the Swedish modernists – fyrtiotalisterna – discovered psychoanalysis and became politically “aware”. These happenings – or machines as this essay likes to view them – all influenced and produced Weiss Swedish prose which is this essay’s main focus. Following Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari this essay understands Weiss Swedish authorship as a minor authorship. As Franz Kafka was in the German language, Peter Weiss was a stranger in Swedish and in Sweden, a “foreign bird” as one critic calls him. As a minor writer he is a political writer, the political realities are connected to him, his half-Jewish body is intertwined in the (bio)political realities of mid-century Germany; and those realities are visible in his prose, even if he himself, or his contemporaries, see him as an unpolitical author. Therefore there is no unpolitical and political period in the œuvre of Peter Weiss. Instead there are different flows and movements, from the political, from the production of the psychoanalytic-, modernist- and romantic-machine among others. There are lines of flights, deterritorialization and reterritorialization. This essay aims to follow some of these lines in the Swedish prose of Peter Weiss.

[pt] A presente dissertação faz parte da linha de pesquisa Novos Cenários da Escrita e investiga as relações entre corpo e arte contemporânea, propondo aproximações entre uma ideia de espectro e os conceitos devir-imperceptível (cf. Deleuze e Guattari) e infraleve (cf. Marcel Duchamp). Provocada por algumas obras de artistas contemporâneos (Silueta Series, de Ana Mendieta, The Ruins of Detroit, de Marchand e Meffre, a exposição Contemporáneo 30, de Elba Bairon, e Underlie 04, de Marc Atkins), realiza uma leitura das mesmas, atravessada por esses conceitos. / [en] This dissertation is part of the research line New Scenes for Writing and relates body and contemporary art, proposing similarities between a certain idea of spectrum and two concepts: becoming-imperceptible (as in Deleuze and Guattari) and infrathin (as in Marcel Duchamp). Provoked by a few works from contemporary artists (Siluetas Series, by Ana Mendieta, The Ruins of Detroit, by Marchand and Meffre, Contemporáneo 30, by Elba Barion, and Underlie 04, by Mark Atkins), it makes a reading effort of them, crossed by these concepts.

Por meio de nove atmosferas distintas, distribuídas em três capítulos, construiu-se um esboço de cartografia teórica de alguns estudos educacionais voltados à filosofia das multiplicidades de Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari, a partir da seguinte questão: o que se passa entre a educação e o plano de pensamento desses autores? As atmosferas anteriores e o primeiro capítulo dizem da construção do objeto da presente pesquisa: desde sua errância até a opção por tal plano de pensamento, e não outro. No segundo capítulo, são selecionados e apresentados alguns conceitos que permitem considerar a educação escolar na ausência do sujeito da educação, tradicionalmente tomado como fundamento e fim último da lida pedagógica; daí a opção pela concepção de aprendizagem de Deleuze. No último capítulo, questiona-se o lugar da identidade como ficção psíquica que a escola tem auxiliado a construir desde sua fundação, assim como se discutem os devires da educação por meio da análise dos efeitos de ruptura, resistência e criação materializados em 11 textos que enfrentam a tradição pedagógica com novas armas. Municiados de conceitos do plano de pensamento de Deleuze & Guattari e de outros criados a partir deste, os autores realizam uma experimentação que esgarça as concepções de representação e de recognição acopladas à idéia de sujeito da educação, expondo os artifícios de produção e corrupção das subjetividades pelo capitalismo. A última atmosfera, abraçando o derradeiro texto de Deleuze: Imanência: uma vida..., dedica-se a recolher os efeitos de ressonância captados por tal linha minoritária do pensamento educacional atual, a qual enseja fomentar as chances de a escola tornar-se lócus privilegiado de composição de forças desejantes capazes de ampliar a potência de dizer sim a outras formas de existência; existências dispostas, se necessário for, a criarem \"máquinas de guerra\" afeitas a desintegrar tudo o que ofusca a vida, seja na escola, seja fora dela. / Through nine different atmospheres, distributed in three chapters, it was outlined a theoretical cartography of some studies addressed to Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari\'s philosophy of multiplicities, from the following question: what happens between education and the plane of thought of these authors? The Previous atmospheres and the first chapter are on the building of the object of this research from its roaming to the option for such a plane of thought, and not any other one. The second chapter deals with some concepts that allow us to think school education while in the absence of the subject of education, traditionally considered the purpose and the ultimate end of the pedagogical task; thus the reason for the option for Deleuze\'s pedagogical concept. The last chapter argues which is the place of identity as psychic fiction that school has helped us to build since its origins, as well as it discuss the coming-to-be of education through the analysis of the effects of disruption, resistance and e creation developed in 11 essays that face the pedagogical tradition with new weapons. Furnished with the concepts of Deleuze & Guattari\'s plane of thought, and with other ones created from them, the authors make an experimentation that tears apart the conceptions of representation and of recognition connected with the subject\'s idea of education, unveiling the artificialities of production and corruption of the subjectivities by capitalism. The last atmosphere, which embraces Deleuzes\' final essay: Immanence: a life..., gathers the resounding effects picked up by this minor part of the present educational thought, which wishes to promote chances of the school to become privileged locus of the composing of desiring forces able to enlarge the potency to say yes to other forms of existence; forms willing, if necessary, to create \"war machines\" used to disintegrating everything that hinders life, be it at school, or outside it.

Esta tese se divide em duas partes. Na primeira parte serão expostas as escolas e teorias mais importantes para o conceito de sentido. Na segunda parte será exposto o conceito de sentido espectral. A primeira seção é monográfica e trata de investigar o conceito de sentido em quatro diferentes campos das ciências humanas: a lógica, a linguagem, a fenomenologia e a teoria dos sistemas. A segunda traz a proposição teórica do conceito de sentido espectral e o discute em função de diagramas de comunicação e sentido. Com isso, a discussão da primeira parte deste trabalho deverá introduzir as dimensões do conceito de sentido que, por sua vez, serão relacionados com certo padrão de difusão e consumo da informação. Essa relação entre os modos de produção das matrizes de media e um determinado conceito de sentido é explorada ao longo de todo o trabalho. Espectral, com isso, é uma metáfora para a particular produção de sentido do ambiente digital. Esse campo do sentido eletrônico será descrito e delineado em contraposição às metáforas não-espaciais de difusão do ciberespaço, que sugerem um campo aberto de aceleração e expansão não comensurável. Desse modo, o conceito de sentido espectral apresentará dois blocos de elementos complementares cuja finalidade é vincular as metáforas não-espaciais, exteriores e difusas do ciberespaço, com uma descrição dos mecanismos interiores desse sentido digital. Esses mecanismos serão descritos teórica e graficamente por meio de cinco componentes: serialização, aglutinação, seleção, nódulos e disrupção. Essas operações, por sua vez, percorrem uma superfície cujos movimentos são simultaneamente concêntricos e arborescentes. A descrição desse movimento será feita por meio de três circuitos: círculos interiores, círculos exteriores e círculos crescentes. A superfície, por sua vez, será descrita com o conceito de anéis de cebola. A vinculação entre as camadas concêntricas e a superfície do ciberespaço conforma o próprio conceito de sentido espectral. / This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part discusses the most influential schools and theories regarding the concept of meaning. The second part presents the concept of spectral meaning. This first section is monographic and consists in an investigation into the concept of meaning within four different fields of human sciences: logics, language, phenomenology and social systems theory. The second section presents the theoretical thesis concerning the concept of spectral meaning and discusses it in the light of communication and meaning diagrams. Therefore, the first part of this work introduces the varied understandings of the concept of meaning which, in a second phase, will be related to specific patterns of information and communication. This relationship between modes of production across different media matrices and a given concept of meaning is continually explored throughout the thesis. Spectral is, therefore, a metaphor for the specific production of sense in the digital environment. This field of electronic meaning will be described and portrayed in opposition to the non-spatial metaphors of diffusion that haunt the cyberspace, regularly depicting it as an open and incommensurable field of acceleration and expansion. Accordingly, the concept of spectral meaning will present two sets of paired elements in order to connect the non-spatial, diffusive and exterior metaphors of the cyberspace with a representation of the electronic meaning and its internal mechanisms. These mechanisms will be described theoretically and graphically along five main components: serialization, netclustering, gatekeeping, nodes and breakthrough. These operations, on the other hand, go through a surface whose activity is both concentric and arborescent. The description of this movement will be target along three cycles: inner circles, outer circles and growing circles. The surface itself, conversely, will be described with the concept of onion rings. The connection between the concentric layers and the cyberspace surface comprehends the concept of spectral meaning itself.

Percebendo no lentíssimo voo dos aeromodelos F1D um sublime que a aceleração contemporânea subtrai à vida, a presente pesquisa busca formular hipóteses em torno ao fenômeno desacelerante desse voo; para tal, entendese a \"dúvida\" enquanto potência e o \"desconhecido\" como instância de liberdade. / Observing the F1D\'s slow flight, we can realize a sublime feeling that contemporary acceleration subtracts from life. Our research looks for hypotheses about this deceleration generated by the F1D; besides that, we take the \"doubt\" as potency and the \"unknown\" as a field of freedom.

In his short paper “Postscript on Control Societies” (Deleuze 1995: 177-82), Gilles Deleuze offered one of the most searing diagnoses of contemporary society critical theory has produced. Three decades later, this essay remains remarkable for its prescience, especially when one considers that the World Wide Web was not in existence at the time that Deleuze wrote his essay, let alone smart phones and social media. Now that we’re beginning to understand the impact of global corporations such as Facebook and Alphabet (Google’s parent company), it could be argued that the essay speaks to today’s technological reality even more incisively than it did thirty years ago. Deleuze identified some of the key principles and logics at work.

[pt] Os processos de assujeitamento engendrados nas sociedades biopolíticas são a condição subjetiva através da qual os indivíduos são normalizados. As normas sociais e seus valores são estabelecidos em cada relação normalizante fazendo convergir nossa ação na ação incitada pelas relações de poder dominantes. Seria possível resistir a este quadro, se estamos todos em um mesmo emaranhado de saber e de poder que condiciona nossa ação? Deleuze descobre a resistência em Foucault, que encontrava-se aparentemente preso ao poder, na figura da subjetivação. É dobrando a força que podemos criar um espaço de liberdade – não fora, mas dentro do poder. / [fr] Les processus d assujettissement engendrés dans les sociétés biopolitiques sont la condition subjective par lequel les individus sont normalisés. Les normes sociales et ces valeurs sont établies dans chaque relation normalisante de façon à convergir notre action dans l action incité par les relations de pouvoir dominantes. Sera-t-il possible, alors, résister à ce scénario, si nous sommes dans un réseau de savoir-pouvoir qui condicione notre action? Deleuze decouvre la résistance dans Foucault, qui, par sa fois, était apparemment attaché au pouvoir, dans la figure de la subjectivation. Il s agit de plier la force pour qui l espace de liberté soit créé – pas dehors le pouvoir, mais dedans.

[pt] Com vistas a tecer uma crítica ao conceito de reconciliação, entendido dentro do campo do conhecimento da justiça de transição, essa dissertação observa o contexto pós-ditadura brasileiro, com destaque aos instrumentos relacionados. Nota que existe uma ligação em discursos e práticas, na teoria e nos casos concretos, entre a reconciliação e a identidade nacional. Percebe que nessa relação existe um problema: ao passo que etimologicamente diferentes, quando análogas produzem esquecimento, apaziguamento, pacificação, podendo gerar o que objetivamente no começo não se queria: o retorno de regimes autoritários. Para analisar o panorama brasileiro e as definições dos três termos em destaque – justiça de transição, reconciliação e identidade nacional -, faz uso da filosofia política de Gilles Deleuze. Como meio de criação de uma nova ontologia, traz discussões acerca da lei e das instituições, um novo modo de análise da micropolítica e como agem os enunciados coletivos e palavras de ordem. Ao examinar o significado de mecanismos e discursos na transição brasileira – investigando a produção da Lei de Anistia, os passos para e da Constituinte, a CEMDP, a Comissão de Anistia, os processos judiciais e a CNV -, estabelece o caminho e conteúdo das linhas de segmentaridade dura, flexível e de fuga, bem como as capturas do Estado em razão da axiomática capitalista. Esse estudo explicita que não ocorreu uma reconciliação política no país, que a justiça de transição se encontra inacabada, que a identidade nacional é um discurso para omitir violências e que silenciar o passado não basta para sua não repetição. / [en] With the aim to criticize the concept of reconciliation, understood within the field of knowledge of transitional justice, this thesis observes the post-dictatorship context in Brazil, with emphasis on the related instruments. It notes that there is a link in speeches and practices, in theory and in concrete cases, between reconciliation and national identity. It realizes that there is a problem in this relationship: while etymologically different, when made analogues they produce oblivion, appeasement, pacification, and can generate what objectively in the beginning was not wanted: the return of authoritarian regimes. To analyze the Brazilian panorama and the definitions of the three highlighted terms - transitional justice, reconciliation and national identity -, is used Gilles Deleuze s political philosophy. As a way of creating a new ontology, it brings discussions about law and institutions, a new way of analyzing micropolitics and how collective enunciation and order words act. When examining the meaning of mechanisms and discourses in the Brazilian transition - investigating the production of the Amnesty Law, the steps to and of the Constituent Assembly, the CEMDP, the Amnesty Commission, the lawsuits and the CNV -, it sets up the form and content of the lines of hard segmentation, flexible and of flight, as well as the State s captures due to the capitalist axiomatic. This study explains that there was no political reconciliation in the country, that transitional justice is unfinished, that national identity is a discourse to omit violence and that silencing the past is not enough for its non-repetition.

In 1955, American artist Dorothea Tanning abandoned her figurative Surrealist renderings of dream-like scenarios in favor of a complexly abstract and fragmented style of painting. With few exceptions, the ways in which Tanning’s later works function independently of her earlier paintings tends to be downplayed in the scholarship on her oeuvre. Equally sparse is the scholarship on Tanning’s dog imagery, which pervades her oeuvre but becomes most apparent in her later phase. This thesis seeks to shift attention toward Tanning’s later abstract paintings; it also seeks to fill the gap in scholarship on Tanning’s dogs. Specifically, through the study of five Tanning paintings from the late 1950s and 1960s, with the theoretical aid of Deleuze and Guattari’s conception of the becoming-animal, this thesis will investigate how Tanning’s post-1955 paintings create and promote new ways for viewers to think about the relations between humans and animals in the human-dominated modern world.
