? Organ?s witho?ut Bodie?s - Gille?s Deleu?ze ? .Slavo?j Zizek? .1. The Reali?ty of the Virtu?al The measu?re of the true love for a philo?sophe?r is that one recog?nizes? trace?s of his conce?pts all aroun?d in ones daily? exper?ience?. Recen?tly, while? watch?ing again? Serge?i Eisen?stein?s Ivan the Terri?ble, I notic?ed a wonde?rful detai?l in the coron?ation? scene? at the begin?ning of the first? part: when the two (for the time being?) close?st frien?ds of Ivan pour golde?n coins? from the large? plate?s onto his newly? anoin?ted head, this verit?able rain of gold canno?t but surpr?ise the spect?ator by its magic?ally exces?sive chara?cter - even after? we see the two plate?s almos?t empty?, we cut to Ivans head on which? golde?n coins? nonre?alist?icall?y conti?nue to pour in a conti?nuing? flow. Is this exces?s not very Deleu?zian? Is it not the exces?s of the pure flow of becom?ing over its corpo?real cause?, of the virtu?al over the actua?l?The first? deter?minat?ion that comes? to mind aprop?os of Deleu?ze is that he is the philo?sophe?r of the Virtu?al - and the first? react?ion to it shoul?d be to oppos?e Deleu?zes notio?n of the Virtu?al to the all-perva?sive topic? of virtu?al reali?ty: what matte?rs to Deleu?ze is not virtu?al reali?ty, but the reali?ty of the virtu?al (which?, in Lacan?ian terms?, is the Real). Virtu?al Reali?ty in itsel?f is a rathe?r miser?able idea: that of imita?ting reali?ty, of repro?ducin?g its exper?ience? in an artif?icial? mediu?m. The reali?ty of the Virtu?al, on the other? hand, stand?s for the reali?ty of the Virtu?al as such, for its real effec?ts and conse?quenc?es. Let us take an attra?ctor in mathe?matic?s: all posit?ive lines? or point?s in its spher?e of attra?ction? only appro?ach it in an endle?ss fashi?on, never? reach?ing its form - the exist?ence of this form is purel?y virtu?al, being? nothi?ng more than the shape? towar?ds which? lines? and point?s tend. Howev?er, preci?sely as such, the virtu?al is the
