love the first scene, two guys with shaved heads and glasses. A practical lesson in 'difference and repetition'

It’s like two clones of Foucault talking about Deleuze

this guy is chill, would defiantly blaze with this brother

Foucault doing a lecture on Deleuze, interesting.

Todd May is one of my favourite Professors. His patience of dealing with his students and his introductory writings of Deleuze and Foucault are both scintillating.

Thank you so much for this. I recently got into Deleuze and fell in love with his affirmation of reality and his affirmation of the continuation of philosophy (as opposed to thinkers like Heidegger, Rorty, and Wittgenstein, who insisted that philosophy should come to an end). I read May's book on Deleuze and am currently reading Deleuze's works on Bergson, Spinoza, and Nietzsche. The whole time I've been thinking "Dear God, what am I going to do when I get to Difference and Repetition. How will I wrap my mind around it." It was super comforting to hear him say that he had to take it 4 pages at a time. Again, thank you so much.

I am so grateful for this! I'm researching for my PhD and am hundreds of miles away from my university city - not the greatest time to attempt Difference & Repetition, but this is so helpful to guide me through my first go at it!

Wow, I have traveled to the far corners of KZfaq listening to lectures and or talks/podcasts on Deleuze and in my earlier "studies" -- the quotation marks because I am not an academic, and like Todd May, I left psychology because of post structuralism, though I was in my first semester of getting my Bachelors at the age of 29. Perhaps my "identity" is a result of maximum entropy production rather than épistémè . With that being said, I was drawn to Foucault after my intoxication with Deleuze ....not faded, but rather...multiplied. Call it a line of flight. I must say that this is by far one of the most comprehensive and pleasurable lectures I have ever listened to on Deleuze and Foucault.

Listening to audio, sounds like Jerry Seinfeld giving a lecture on Deleuze

If these are histories and not essential qualities, then they can be changed. Things don't have to be the way that they are.

Professor May's ability to teach is extraordinary. I have never come across someone with such a perfect tempo and lucid language throughout my philosophy education so far.

Wow, thanks so much for sharing this!

I know I commented a while ago, but I got to mention again how much I appreciate y'all hosting this video. It's a treasure.

Love Professor May's energy..

Todd may is such a good lecturer. I love this series before I read D&R. I read anti oedipus and got most of it but there were a lot of terms like different synthesis that are all referencing D&R

This is GREAT! Thanks for uploading :)

These videos have been really valuable to me. I'm working on my own thing, and this has helped contribute very much. I've been taking notes as I follow each video. So, thank you!
