Greenhall wanted to start something new, something that "disrupted" the=20

post- structuralist Gilles Deleuze, Greenhall wanted to transform the=20
entire system of entertainment distribution from the bottom up.

Greenhall goes so far as to see Deleuze as a mentor for DivX Networks. The=

French critic wrote of simple actions having profound effects, of webs=20
transformed by unexpected developments.

"He takes Foucault and then builds on it, combining American-style=20
pragmatism with French philosophy," Greenhall says. "It's exactly what=20
we're doing -- we're building a disruptive technology. So this mode of=20
thought is important. I use it on a daily basis to try and understand how=20
things relate in a novel way. You can think of an industry as a series of=20
forces, and when you introduce a new technology -- like DivX -- it has=20
complex effects on the whole system. You have to try and figure out what=20
they'll be, and that's what we're trying to do."

In the spring of 1999, Greenhall saw DivX as the ideal tool to make theory=
=20
into reality. He and Rota joined forces with a few others and formed=20
Project Mayo -- the name came from mayonnaise, which like DivX, Rota says,=
=20
"is French and very hard to make."
