Schizofreniczna materia. O produkcji ciał, pojęć i podmiotowości
Schizophrenic Matter. About the Production of Bodies, Concepts and Subjectivities

Summary/Abstract: Agential realism is a perspective situated within the new materialism and posthumanism which combines philosophical and physical issues. Karen Barad, feminist thinker and creator of agential realism, mixes poststructuralist ideas (Michel Foucault) and feminist critical theories with quantum physics, in particular with the thesis of Niels Bohr, one of the founders of this field. The main purpose of this article is to show the relations between agential realism and ideas presented by Deleuze and Guattari in one of their most famous books – Anti-Oedipus. The author of the paper focuses on the presentation of a processual ontology (especially on an explanation of how bodies, concepts, and objects are produced) resulting from the engagement of both perspectives.
