In this episode of Polytechnica we investigate Gilles Deleuze, a highly influential 20th century French philosopher who developed radical and complex concepts related to difference, desire, becoming, and immanence. His work aims to move beyond the tradition of Western metaphysics and its focus on identity, representation, transcendence and arboreal knowledge. He proposes a philosophy of difference and becoming.

Polytechnica is a channel that delivers digestible philosophical bites that can be consumed anywhere at anytime. The general tenor of the work is specifically designed to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. It is in this spirit of a toy theorem (a deliberately simplistic model with many details removed so that it can be used to explain a mechanism concisely) coupled with slow cinema (minimalist, observational, non-narrative, and deliberately contemplative long takes) that we attempt to reveal an applied, quiet, uncluttered, and practical way of consuming challenging content. We are engineering thought.
