“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

OOOIII: Shannon Mattern, "Everything Is Infrastructure"

Mattern, Everything Is Infrastructure

Shannon Mattern (The New School), introduced by Eugene Thacker. There was a problem with video at that moment. The ethernet cable was hardwired into the media panel, and there was no way for my and Shannon's computers both to fit there. So I'm afraid we only have sound for now. But I shall ask Shannon if we can embed her presentation soon. It was a very rich one indeed so I hope we can do this.
