1. THE PLEATS OF MATTER
The baroque as a function that produces folds.
Matter is folds and the forces that act to create un/folding.
Baroque Room
There are two floors of folds.
Downstairs, the first and second folds of matter.
Upstairs the incomplete folds of the soul communicating toward God (the soul follows its own folds).
The folds upstairs are cords and springs of knowledge. Downstairs, the vibration of matter.
Forces on Matter
Plastic (organic) and elastic (organic) forces.
Different forces acting on/in masses (inorganic) and forces that act on/in organisms (organic).
Mechanisms are not sufficient to be machines(8).
The machine inside of an organism. How every piece of the machine is another machine.

forces acting upon or within matter. At the risk, below:<>
An "objectile" is "technological object," that is, it's place in the economy, in the culture of production, distribution, and distribution replace the object. It is what it is in the world, by the world, thru time. The object is therefor continuous unfolding of its form, of its relationship to the environment. "The object here is manneristic, not essentializing: it becomes an event." (19).
As the object changes into objectile, so the subject changes into what Whitehead called a "superject." Deleuze calls this a "point of view." This point of veiw relates to perspectivism only in that a point of view reveals the subjects own relation to the object. 'It is not a variation of truth according to the subject, but the condition in nwhich the truth of a variation appears to the subject.' (20)
