Deleuze Versus Agamben on Creativity and Resistance

Acid Horizon

What is a creative act? In other words, what is the nature of the forces which bring 'the new' into the world? Also, what is the role of resistance and the potential not to act against notions of creativity? In this episode, Craig, Will, and Adam perform a close reading of Gilles Deleuze's "What is a Creative Act?" and Giorgio Agamben's response, "What is an Act of Creation?", examining the respective nuances in the philosophers' views of creativity.
