Abstract

The objective of this article is to introduce concepts that belong to Baruch Spinoza’s philosophy, passing through Guilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, who used the system proposed in the book Ethics, to work within the same plane of immanency (from this perspective plane is understood as map, and immanency as the internal perseverance of bodies, opposed to transcendence). First, general aspects about graphic design and its relation to contemporary consumption practices are explained; then, Spinozian arguments are developed regarding the type of signs, the affections, and knowledge genre, relating them to image perception produced in advertising design.
