deterritorialization

is movement without regard for the integrity of the skin.

Deleuze and Guattarri develop a new vocabulary in which movement occurs withotu regard for the integrity of the skin-- deterritorialization and reterritorializaiton, lines of flight, planes of consistency, assemblages' (Hayles 2001:153)

is the process whereby the very basis of one's identity, the proverbial ground beneath our feet, is eroded, washed away like the bank ofa river swollen by floodwater immersion.

As Ian Buchanan explains, for Deleuze, 'deterritorialization' is 'the process whereby the very basis of one's identity, the proverbial ground beneath our feet, is eroded, washed away like the bank ofa river swollen by floodwater immersion'
