magazines printed between1960 and 1980.The images offered a rich palette of color choices particularto a period of mass production printing with what are now discontinued inksScanned and translated into large digital prints and mounted on magneticsheets,they were attached to a gallery wall surfaced with steel-embeddedpaint.The works contain a series of progressive collage actions,beginningwith the original cut-ups from the archival magazines,configured and gluedonto paper,reconfigured in the scanning process,and later reconfiguredagain on the wall.Combined and recombined,they morph and grow.  \n9  \n# WHAT IS AN ASSEMBLAGE?\n\nPer Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari (see their Anti-Oedipus [1972],Kafka:Toward a Minor Literature [1975],A Thousand Plateaus [1980]and What IsPhilosophy?[1991]]),an assemblage (agencement in French)is:  \nRonald Bogue  \nA Multiplicity—Irreducible to the dynamics of the One and the Many,an assemblage changes qualitatively with any change in the number ofits constituent elements.It is not like a bag of 82 marbles,which at 81or 83 remains a bag of marbles,but like a room at 82 degrees,which isqualitatively different from one at 81 or 83.(You can't add 1 degree to 82to reach 83 degrees.)  \nA Heterogeneity—An assemblage's elements ignore standard taxonomies,connecting bodies,images,phobias,buildings,machines,plants,bacteria,birds—whatever—in a functioning that resembles a Rube Goldberg machine(\"Simple Reducing Machine\":peas from the diner's plate shoot in theair and strike a bell;a disoriented boxer answers the bell and falls on amattress;air compressed from the mattress arouses a rabbit,whose leapactivates a phonograph that plays the Theme of the Volga Boatmen;a Volgaboatman heaves on a rope tied to the diner's wheeled chair,which pulls thediner away from the table).  \nAn Assembling—An assemblage is both noun and verb,the act ofassembling as well as the resulting assemblage—or rather,the assemblageis constantly in assemblage,never a completed result,only its own ongoingprocess of self-assembling.It is an agencement (French agencer =toarrange,to order,to position,to fit together),an arranging,an ordering,a positioning of elements,afitting together (of parts of a machine,forexample),and also an agencing,a processual agency without specifiedagents.  \nA Disassembling—Assemblages include their dysfunction within theirfunctioning.They are machines that continue to operate while breakingdown and make the breakdown part of their operation.Neither purelychaotic nor absolutely organized,they are mutative processes with varyingmultilayered degrees of stability and instability.They also are always socialand political,connected to circuits of power,in which forces of regulation,discipline and control seek efficiency and homeostasis,while forces ofgeneration,innovation and creation promote disruptions and unforeseeablereconfigurations of elements.But both forces are immanent to theassemblage,not outside it,each a manifestation of the assemblage's powersof assembling and disassembling,the one a repairing of dysfunctions and  \nchanneling of functions into predictable cycles,the other an intensifying ofdysfunctions and invention of new functions.  \nA Rhizome—Assemblages are like crabgrass and bamboo,which haveno central roots or hierarchy of elements(like a tree,with tap root andsubsidiary roots,trunk,branches,stems and leaves)but instead possesscontinuously growing horizontal underground stems that put out lateral shootsand adventitious roots at intervals.Assemblages are acentered,distributednetworks of forces,but networks of a paralogical topology
