Gary Indiana TV Takeover / What is a Rhizome? Kluge and Vogl on Deleuze and Guattari by Prime Time Spatausgabe

“This conversation between Alexander Kluge and Joseph Vogl is an example of hundreds of generative, playful, wide-ranging Prime Time programs Kluge has produced every week since the mid-1980s, having shrewdly secured licenses for the 10-11 pm slot on two German television stations at a time when the value of this media real estate wasn’t widely recognized. In the “1% of dissonance” within the dominant discourse that Kluge thus guaranteed, he has interviewed people in every conceivable profession, not just intellectuals, artists, poets, economists and others in rarefied cultural and scientific fields — the subject of one of my favorite programs is the chef of the Berliner Ensemble cantina. We all take in more than we know, and know more than we think we do: part of Kluge’s genius is his ability to draw insights out of both people who think for a living and people who’ve never shared their reflective inner lives before in public.” – Gary Indiana
