摘要

本文以作者在東京火車上看到人類匆忙書寫的狀況為發想，進而探討「瓦解」（Zerrissenheit）或「分裂」（tearing）的概念，以及它「抽象機器」（abstract machine）之間緊密卻又複雜的關連性。德勒茲和他的研究同好瓜達里與海德格（Heidegger）多次針對「分裂」提出看法。雖然他們的描繪方式不同，例如德勒茲以「東方線條」的概念說明之，卻也都凸顯了科技可能帶來的危險和崩壞。人類身處於掙扎中；一方面是將科技視成自己認識這世界的媒介，科技提供了包羅萬象的世界資訊，使人類感到無限可能和期待；另一方面卻也造成了人類與世界的分離。保羅．克利提出的主動與自動線條（active, spontaneous lines）的藝術觀以及一般的亞洲文化都不約而同地點出「適度」的重要性，特別是當科技已經破壞了那份最純粹和最簡單的「流變」時。德勒茲與瓜達里的研究不僅成為海德格研究的延續，並補其不足，也更完整其理論。

The paper opens with a small vignette regarding the production of calligraphy at speed on the Tokyo train network. This will serve as a focal point in considerations pertaining to the notion of Zerrissenheit or ＂tearing＂ and its intimate relationship with the complicated notion of the ＂abstract machine.＂ As both Gilles Deleuze and Martin Heidegger have used the idea of ＂tearing＂ in various ways, we shall think transversally across these two approaches in terms of disclosing the dangers and possibilities of technological relationships as in Heidegger, and, as in Deleuze (and his collaborator Félix Guattari), in the sense of how tearing impacts on writing and the articulation of calligraphy or what Deleuze designates the ＂Oriental line＂ in The Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque. It will become clear that while technology tears the hand away from an essential relation to man and earth through disruption and disorientation, it also engineers ＂universes of reference＂ in unheard-of ways, as means to think, produce and live afresh. Man is essentially torn between these two poles. In entwining the aforementioned remarks with the art of Paul Klee (active, spontaneous lines), the notion of sobriety and Asian culture in general, the conclusion, which teases out the ramifications from the mainstay thesis that technology effectively disrupts the purity of style or the simplicity of becoming, suggests that in several ways Deleuze and Guattari's sole and joint writings are an extension, radicalisation and complement of Heidegger's thought.
