"Becoming" is a basic concept of dialectical logic, which is to describe the procedural aspect of the world, the birth and death of beings, things and situations. In contrast to “change” describes "becoming" a developing event in itself.
"Becoming" is the process of change, flight or movement with an assemblage. Instead of conceiving all the pieces of an assemblage a whole, within which the specific pieces are placed by organisation of unity, "becoming" accounts for relationships between the "discrete" elements of the assemblage. In "becoming-" one piece of the assemblage is drawn into the territory of another piece, changing its value as an element and bringing about a new unity. There is no central organizing principle to the interconnected things in the assemblage.
Deleuze and Guattari see "Becoming" as a process but not one of imitation, identification or analogy, it is generative of a new way of being that is a function of influences rather than resemblances. The process is one of removing the element from its original functions and bringing about new ones. But it is rather seen as an infection than as a genealogical sequence.
