Today at college we watched a documentary about how gilles deleuze influenced so many people with this book. Among some interviewed people were composer David Shea (never heard of him but he seems to make very cool music) and dj spooky. The documentary also featured music by aphex twin and squarepusher. Pretty nice to wake up to!
Apparently, this book is really something. Although it's said to be quite difficult to read, i'm sure someone here has.
Let me know! In the meantime, i'll go find some links.

haven't read Mille Plateaux, but i've read a fair amount of Deleuze and Guattari... stuff on Minor Literature... very interesting... i ought to try Mille Plateaux some time soon, i've probably spent enough time with theory jargon now that it wouldn't be too bad of a read... but yeah, there's a compilation which is basically a tribute to Deleuze kickin' about somewhere... i think it's on Sub Rosa... pretty much all electronic, if i'm not mistaken...

here we go:
FOLDS & RHIZOMES for GILLES DELEUZE mouse on mars / scanner / oval / main / david shea / tobias hazan SR99 original works
folds and rhizomes: 50 minutes of the purest music we have ever released, original material especially commisioned for this project featuring mouse on mars, scanner, oval, main, hazan+shea.
folds and rhizomes for gilles deleuze
naturally every release is important to us - but sometimes we have a feeling of particular urgency and importance. folds and rhizomes for gilles deleuze is one of these instances. for various reasons - not least of which is the fact that it was thanks to deleuze that sub rosa ever came into existence; that what is presented here was conceived for him by people whose works was profoundly inspired by his liberating ideas, and that it was thanks to the unending dialogue with him that everything materialised - we find ourselves today with the curious impression that it was almost deleuze himself who produced this release. the story is all the more painful for the fact that this disc was intented as a surprise for him and that he chose to die before its completion. let it not be mistaken for a tribute. this is a living work for the living ideas of someone named gilles deleuze.
mille plateaux
"obviously, this is not an official tribute to this great figure, one
of the foremost philosoph of our time. It is only the fraternal salute of a few people who admire him deeply, and who where once helped in their lives and in their creations by his work. deleuze, you have given us so much encouragement, so many signs of friendship, that this is the slightest thing we could express to you." from the sleeve notes. september 1995
this summarizes the feeling about this album when it was first released in 1996, of course, a few years later deleuze
is still present in our minds and hearts.

well, you should start with Anti-Oedipus; Capitalism and Schizophrenia first. Its a precursor to A Thousand Plateaus...., though equally difficult and as completely non-linear.
