Abstract
In this paper we explore the contributions that Deleuze and Guattari have
made to thinking/writing language and how these ideas can be put to work
in producing a doctoral thesis. We contribute to the field of work within
what Patti Lather and Elizabeth St Pierre have called the “post-qualitative”
movement, where researchers attempt to “imagine and accomplish an
inquiry that might produce different knowledge and produce knowledge
differently”. We attempt to rethink the thesis text, using a language where
language always falls apart, a way of talking/writing/reading about
presentation of research within a doctoral thesis that will provide the
writermachine a space to “pass”. The paper will provide some ideas and ways
forward for writers who are attempting to deterritorialize research, who are
attempting to experiment with new representational forms.
