An Ethnomethodological Misreading of Deleuze. Towards Post-praxiology?

To the extent post-humanist, non-anthropocentric, and new materialist studies focus on actual occasions, there are many similarities to Garfinkel’s work. Just as Garfinkel misread the great phenomenologists, we may now turn to a misreading of some key figures in these new movements to explore what can be learned from their projects regarding respecifying their philosophical abstractions as practical, situated accomplishments. In this talk, I will sketch “the missing what” in Deleuze work and use this reading to expand the analysis of activities within phenomenal fields. The role of the observer and the matter of materials disregarding their accountability are two key takeaways that I find essential. To secure the pureness of ethno I will, however, not expand its framework but instead suggest a post-praxiological turn.
