"Decoding is not so much a matter of translating -- or understanding, comprehending -- code, as dismantling it. 'Let us recall that decoding does not signify the state of a flow whose code is understood, but, in a more radical sense, the state of a flow that is no longer contained in its own code, that escapes its own code.' And when two -- or more -- codes come into contact strange, unheralded new assemblages can emerge: this is 'surplus value of code'".
