I love you Dave. This Deleuze for the Desperate series is amazing! You give off such a cool and kind vibe and the way you describe things makes it feel like you're patiently teaching me. I've been rhizomatically watching this series for a while now. These videos are very inspiring for somebody like me, who wants to gain an understanding of Deleuze on their own time. Thank you for your contribution. I am genuinely, very grateful.
Steady on Ronan McConnell! I am British! Seriously though -- thanks for the great support. Best wishes for your own projects
thanks Dave, I´m so glad when my feed show new content from you, and just in time when I sort of plateau in my research, cheers from Ecuador.
Thanks very much for this. Most encouraging and amazing to think I have got as far as Ecuador! Best of luck with your research
I really enjoyed watching all these videos and reading up on your summaries as I am also working through many of Deleuze's texts. I also enjoy your critical remarks. It is good to state "what a buffoon" from time to time. Keeps one from an attitude of reverence.
Glad I might have helped. I include myself in the buffoon category some times of course
Dave, you might consider opening a Soundcloud account or something similar for the audio files. You can always include the option to download the files. Also, if you upload new files, it will notify subscribers.
Good idea Sereptie. I need to experiment a bit with audio files. How is your own work progressing?
I'm so glad you uploaded something after a 5-month hiatus, I thought you had abandoned the channel!
Greetings from Venezuela
Thanks Miguel Orono. I was ill for a bit and I am getting on in years!
Great to hear from someone in Venezuela, by the way
This is such a wholesome and beautiful series, I loved looking at nature and listening to your talk. Thank you and hope you are doing well.
Thank you very much for this support beril evlimoğlu. Very best of luck with your own work..
Thank you very much for this series, Dave. I'm impressed by all the work you have put into this to help many desperate beginners (such as myself). Now I'm going to head to your website to follow some of the paths from there. Cheers from Poland.
Thanks for the encouragement Marcin Pawlik. I hope I might have helped get you started. Always good to hear from a Pole!
Always happy to see more videos, greetings from Turkmenistan! Appreciate your work!
Thanks xsanitarx. I am much encouraged. Turkmenistan as well!

Thanks for the support, and congratulations on the stamina!
Thank you so much for the videos! They are a really good resource to help consolidate and clarify my understanding

would you be able to make a video about deleuze and 'what is philosophy?'
Hi dEmit. I have a webpage of fairly detailed notes if that is any good? www.arasite.org/whatisphil.html. There is a link to the Deleuze page with lots of notes on the other D&G material as well. Good luck
At the start of the series, you were a bit grumpy over the prose-style and to paraphrase "they do too much philosophising". Has this changed in any way? Have you warmed up to their French academic shibboleths?
Sorry if I came over as grumpy, Robert Kuusk. I was trying to be quietly sceptical. It all does get a bit more familiar as you read on, but there are still issues for me. Mostly, it is the 1960s French academic style described so well by Bourdieu - the cultural allusions, throwaway terms in Greek or Latin, or what I think of as Parisian salon talk -- asides about then fashionable topics or books, critical dialogues with people who are not actually present. I know they are doing 'delire' but I do wish a good copy editor had got involved in the publications. I still think they have missed out by not reading much sociology: as I say in the latest stuff on language, they could have done with a few bits from Durkheim here and there, and their take on marxism is pretty limited (Guattari's solo-authored stuff is better). They prefer novelists. Their occasional use of empirical examples is just laughable -- in this material, I have picked out their 'evidence' for the effects of milieu on human language -- 'Everyone knows that lumberjacks rarely talk'! It's Monty Python! They both have a dreadful tendency to endlessly elaborate subdivisions and subcategories of major terms (Schizoanalytic Cartographies is the worst example for me, Anti-Oedipus runs it close). They often enter so many subsequent reservations and qualifications about what they have just said -- no doubt in the interests of philosophical rigour -- that you end up confused and defeated. I am not the only one to have said all that, of course. However, there is always a kernel of argument that is worth digging out, but I just wish they would make it a bit more accessible. Best wishes.
Thank you Dave!
You're very welcome Vanji

@@DaveHarrisreDeleuze Oh, you're back!
You ever think about doing some Whitehead for the desperate?? Thanks for all you do!
Beyond me I am afraid -- have a go yourself?
@@DaveHarrisreDeleuze a “Whitehead for the Wretched” series sounds beyond me as well - maybe one day!
