Nomads

Nomadism is a way of life that exists outside of the organizational state. The nomadic way of life is characterized by movement across space which exists in sharp contrast to the rigid and static boundaries of the state - - rhizomes.net

The Nomad, is thus, a way of being in the middle or between points. It is characterized by movement and change, and is unfettered by systems of organization. The goal of the nomad is only to continue to move within the "intermezzo."

> The nomad has a territory; he follows customary paths; he goes from one point to another; he is not ignorant of points (water points, dwelling points, assembly points, etc.). But the question is what in nomad life is a principle and what is only a consequence. > To begin with, although the points determine paths, they are strictly subordinated to the paths they determine, the reverse happens with the sedentary. The water point is reached only in order to be left behind; every point is a relay and exists only as a relay. A path is always between two points, but the in-between has taken on all the consistency and enjoys both an autonomy and a direction of its own. > Deleuze and Guattari. The life of the nomad is the intermezzo. (380)
