Grace Jones’s body is a machine distributed across media rather than an originating organism

Evidence

Jones understands her body Spinozistically as a machine capable of being affected and producing affects. This body is in no way limited to the organism; it is distributed across photographs, sound and video — and none of these media constitute a representation of an originary organic body. They are, each of them, unique expressive components of the Jones singularity. — Mark Fisher (edited by Darren Ambrose), K-Punk, 902
