Abstract

This article investigates how Gilbert Simondon articulates bodily forces to a incorporeal or expressive superfi ciality recut of communication. The text detects explicit mentions of communication in Simondon’s main doctorate thesis, presented in 1958, to distinguish implicit operations which, far from securing the transmission of commands, zigzag between incompatible orders to produce and maintain blocks full of tension. A semiotic (un)framing will gradually come to light, while the thesis allows us to falsify dualist descriptions of individuation; affi rm the disparity of perspectives from a preindividual problematic zone; surprise a communication which condenses affects within crystalline solutions; and contemplate affective disparity as a trigger for an expressive surplus, extracted from bodily mixtures.
