After asserting his realist conviction in the self-creativity of matter, DeLanda concerns himself with breeding (evolving) novel virtual buildings (rather than designing them). There are three potential problems for the architect, with three corresponding contributions from Deleuze. The first concerns replicators, and the benefits of population thinking about reproductive communities. The second concerns the need for load bearing structures, and the benefits of intensive thinking about productive differences. The third concerns the rich surge space necessary for genuinely novel buildings, and the benefits of non-Eudlidean thinking about abstract diagrams, topologies and multiplicities.
