ABSTRACT
Approaching the theory of the rhizome and in extension rhizomatic jurisprudence is not the simplest of all endeavours. Sylvano Bussotti is one of Italy's most well-known composers. He was born in cosmopolitan Florentine family in 1931. He is a classically trained violinist, and was a student and later also the lover of Heinz-Klaus Metzger who in turn was one of Theodor Adorno's most brilliant music students. Bussotti was for time the artistic director of La Fenice, an opera house in Venice. A post from which he officially resigned at the Venice Biennale in 1991 by bringing a prostitute and a pornographic star to deliver the keynote address, one that he himself was supposed to give. Venice is one of the most mystical and mythical places in Europe and perhaps in the world. It is a city on water and it forms an image of what people should be thinking is about water, canals, movement, beyond idea of fixed origins, static cities with arborescent roots.
