Deleuze - Nomadology - Split A: Nomad Science vs. State Science
Nomad Science vs. State Science
- Nomad science operates through fluid models (hydraulics, becoming, heterogeneity)
- Royal science imposes order, measurement, and static forms
- Innovations (e.g., Archimedes, Gothic architecture, bridge-building) often arise from nomad science but are later appropriated or restricted by the state
- Nomad science is linked to the war machine, fostering creativity and transformation outside state control
- Recognizing this distinction highlights how new knowledge and technologies emerge from the margins
