Özet:
The main concern of this thesis is to investigate the critique of
representational thinking in Deleuze and to comprehend the notion of
Body without Organs (BwO) in relation to aesthetic experience as an
alternative to such thought. In order to do that this thesis
problematises thought which ontologically priorities the principle of
identity. Following that, it looks at subjecthoods and bodies
constructed upon the same notion, and researches Deleuze’s criticisms of
them. Finally, it researches the effects of art on these constructions
in connection to the former’s power of affecting the latter in terms of
turning it into a body without organs. Here the notion of glitch is
introduced as an experiment that describes the violence of art to the
organised bodies. This thesis holds the Deleuzian argument that new
concepts help create new ways of thinking. Thus, it holds that using
terms technology introduces brings forth the possibility of thought that
previously was not possible. Accordingly, experimental music is
offered as a possible event of glitch because it presents new sounds
which previously have not entered into a representational relationship
with the listener. In the final analysis, the event of glitch is equated
with a method of becoming a BwO. In other words, art is discussed as a
method that can shake representational and conceptual thought; thus, it
is taken as that which enables a direct relationship with the given.
