Abstract

The works of Deleuze and Guattari bring strategies for facing hard ways of feeling, thinking and conceiving. Vague universals are abandoned for the sake of a practical phylosophy. From the standpoint of this phylosophy, this dissertation seeks to make available one idea of cartography that, opposed to the posing of questions about the ideia in the form of "What is..?", relocates the questions of the idea to spatio-temporal dynamics. This relocation triggers a procedural and intensive manner of conceiving the problems, with a supportive purpose to the effectuation of cases' cartographies, not given throughout this dissertation. We will work on some theoretical agencies that seek support the effectuation of a cartography. Thereunto, we cast the notion of schizo process undestood from the standpoint of the machinic unconscious that brings, on one hand, a processitivity situated between schizophrenia and paranoia, and, in parallel, between metaphysics do the demoniacal and desiring machines. In a summarized fashion, we also work with the notions of "virtual" and "actual", "individuation", "becoming", "latitudes" and "longitudes", "meantime", "lines", "strata", "means", "judgments", "chaos", "assemblages", "maps", "plan of consistency". Such notions seek to address the move of a case that would transversalize "n" fields of knowledge, whilst, as a different discipline from cartography, we point the intersection between Arts, Phylpsophies and Sciences, once each of the three deals, following its way and with no hierarchy, the vital issues of a cartography (AU)
