One thing I don’t understand.

isn't rhizomatic creation also representational since nothing grows from nothing? Perhaps you make new connections and ideas out of the existing but nothing is ever not a continuation or mix of older concepts. Take Guy Debord for example. While the Society of Spectacle was revolutionary; the ideas proposed still grew out of Marx’s theories of alienation and commodity fetishism, Georg Lukàcs, Hegel, Dadaism and surrealism and seeing the growth of commodification and consumerism.

Is the premise about seeing life and ideas as rhizomes or that an idea can grow out of nothing? I must have understood something wrong so apologies, but I would be glad to get an answer.
