the whole organic cheese company is a "Living Machine"
the leader of the pack in Wisconsin......

...from WisBusiness.com: "At Cedar Grove Cheese, the entire process of making organic cheese, down to how wash-water is treated, is part of a “living machine.” Owner Bob Wills and his staff of 32 produce more than 3.5 million pounds of cheese per year, making Cedar Grove one of the largest, if not the largest, producers of organic and rBGH-free cheese in the country."

Sure organic cheese is exciting and all, but what the real kewl part is that Wills is the first guy to clean up his wastewater with a Living Machine!! Now that's exciting! Not only does he filter out 99% of the waste from his operation but he even gets an added profit. The machine makes soil so he is going to start selling potting soil made from the microbes eating up his cheese waste.... Nice!

I knew the eco-movement couldn't avoid Deleuze...and visa versa.

I think either A Thousand Plateaus or Capitalism and Schizophrenia.

Deleuze is a bit deep. I could certainly not claim to understand him all that well, but it seems like he is incredibly relevant to ecology.
