Virtual and actual dynamics: Deterritorialization and discursivity
Differentiation as double articulation of strata via assemblages
Interpreting functorial domains through gauge theory
Seeing health ecosystems through DRT
Transformative potential of DRT in theory and practice
2 - Grounding machinic ecosystems in life-experiences
Counter-actualization as the source of novelty and becoming
