ABOUT

Cargonauts is part of Logistical Worlds project.

The imperial infrastructure of logistical apparatuses – ports, railways, warehouses, software – inspire unforeseen acts of sabotage, which gives rise to an informal economy of scrap metal work. The subject of labour escapes regimes of measure special to software operations designed to extract value through the calculation of movement on global scales. The borders of the concession within which port activity is governed begin to unravel. New subjectivities of labour and politics are produced. Territory is redefined in ways external to inter-state and commercial agreements. This is how infrastructure makes worlds.
