Explorations of the analog-digital

in relation to the event of the artistic process

pp. 183-199

In this chapter, the complex relationship between the analog and the digital is explored. I draw on Alexander Galloway's interesting analysis of this relationship when discussing the non-philosophy of François Laurelle. I then juxtapose Massumi's Deleuzian analysis of the 'superiority" of the analog so as to explore two digital art installations: Lise Autogena and Joshua Portway's Black Shoals Stock Market Planetarium, a completely digitalized installation, and Stimuline (2003) as discussed by Eleni Ikoniadou where the sonic becomes especially crucial to grasping the rhythmic quality of inaudible sounds; sound artworks are considered as abstract "rhythm machines." The essay concludes to think with quantum levels that are beyond human perception and address the affect/percept that Deleuze and Guattari have addressed by pointing to the asignifying force of energy of the Outside and the question of a New Earth. Once more, there is a pedagogical questioning running throughout this chapter when it comes to the artistic process in new media.
