"... power delineates a second dimension that's irreducible to the dimension of knowledge, even though they together produce concretely indivisible composites; but knowledge relates to forms, the Visible, the Utterable, in short to the archive, while power relates to forces, the play of forces, diagrams." (Negotiations: Gilles Deleuze, 1995)

The first form of roulette was devised in 18th century France. The roulette wheel is believed to be a fusion of the English wheel games Roly-Poly, Reiner, Ace of Hearts, and E.O., the Italian board games of Hoca and Biribi, and "Roulette" from an already existing French board game of that name.
The game has been played in its current form since as early as 1796 in Paris. An early description of the roulette game in its current form is found in a French novel "La Roulette, ou le Jour" by Jaques Lablee, which describes a roulette wheel in the Palais Royal in Paris in 1796. [...] An even earlier reference to a game of this name was published in regulations for New France (Québec) in 1758, which banned the games of "dice, hoca, faro, and roulette."
