Document Summary
Rhizome plant doesn"t have a single trunk - spreads out - multiple areas - gotta get rid of the whole thing to get rid of the plant. Everything decentralized - no centre- its everywhere-no middle ground - no source. Still more trees if you take away one thing - one thing doesn"t make whole system run - it still works. Nature in uences the world - the technological extension - nature and technology aren"t separated - they"re linked. Assemblage - multiple aspects of a system - nothing is whole in itself. Talk about technology theres an ideology around it - tech is seen as a natural thing. Walk into mens changeroom - feel intimidated by other bodies or feel powerful. Walk into elevator - sketchy guy - feel unsafe.
