ALLIED GROUNDS

What is the ecological dimension of work? What common interests do workers’ and
environmental movements have and what does it mean for these movements to join
forces? How can we reclaim the means of (re-)production and transform them into
means of sustainable climate (re-)production?

More than 80 activists and scholars share their thoughts on these questions in
the form of video talks, projects, and essays. Watch the following video talks
by Jennifer Kamau, Svjetlana Nedimović, and Lorenzo Feltrin, before checking
out the other materials on the “Allied Grounds” project website.

Berliner Gazette · Sujatha Byravan + Harsha Walia @ MORE WORLD

Call: 80 researchers, cultural workers, journalists, and activists from 25
countries call on event organizers throughout “Europe” and beyond: Stand
together against the EU border regime and publicize the occasions when borders
sabotage our efforts to build spaces of transnational conversation and
cooperation! Read their open letter.


AFTER EXTRACTIVISM



The BG project “After Extractivism” (2022) asked more than 80 researchers,
activists, cultural workers, and journalists: How can we build our future on the
legacies and claims of those who, yesterday as today, have been plunged into
existential hardship by the ecological-economic complex? And how can we make
such struggles a source of inspiration for a common cause? Contributions include
video talks, collaborative projects, texts, and audios.

Projects that were developed in our conference workshops include a mapping of
resource wars and an inventory of alternative approaches in Yugoslavia.

The video section includes talks by artist and curator Stefan Tiron (top right),
media theoretician Özgün Eylül İşcen (middle right), and social theorist Max
Haiven (bottom right).

The text section includes contributions from researcher Nishat Awan on
environmental destruction and mass displacement in Pakistan, critical geographer
Elena Batunova on the specters of extractivism in the Donbass, philosopher and
artist Oxana Timofeeva about Russia’s petro-imperialism and the (in)human
geographies of war and scholar-activists Carme Arcarazo and Rubén Martínez on
countering the commodification of labor and nature with a new political subject.

AMBIENT REVOLTS

In an interconnected world, even small pinpricks can have cascading effects –
think cyber-attacks or stock market crashes, right-wing resentment or
hashtag-based protests. Such ambient revolts are increasingly driven by the
technologies and imaginaries of artificial intelligence (AI), involving human
interaction, but seemingly beyond human control. Against this backdrop, the BG
project “Ambient Revolts” (2018) asked: What does it mean to rethink human
agency without full knowledge and understanding of the agency of AI?

Among the contributions generated at the BG conference (see roundup video top
right) are projects and video talks, such as by Mathew Stender aka Mathana (see
bottom right), all available on the “Ambient Revolts” resource website.

FRIENDLY FIRE

What does it mean for a person to become a citizen today? What does it mean for
citizens and non-citizens alike to become political actors in fields of dissent?
Such questions come to the fore when, as in the present, conflicts flare up with
extraordinary ferocity.

Exploiting this trend, right-wing populisms promote escapism and war-mongering –
and thus create failed citizens and failed states. In contrast, the BG project
“Friendly Fire” (2017) explored how we can render conflict productive to make
societies more democratic.

In doing so, the project brought into focus a central arena of contemporary
conflicts: the politics of citizenship – not least in its algorithmic dimension.
Watch video talks about this from Felicity Scott, Jennifer Kamau, Eleanor
Saitta, and James Bridle (from left to right).

SIGNALS

BG’s project “Signals” (2017) invited artists to work with the NSA files leaked
by whistleblower Edward Snowden. What does it mean to deploy classified
documents as artistic material and thereby transform them into the commons?

The exhibition included contributions from more than 30 artists, researchers and
activists including Zeljko Blace, Naomi Colvin, Simon Denny, Christoph
Hochhäusler, Geert Lovink, M.C. McGrath, Deborah Natsios, Julian Oliver, Trevor
Paglen (detail above), Laura Poitras, University of the Phoenix, Maria Xynou,
and John Young.

The project has been documented with two books and video statements by the
participants. Watch the videos on the “Signals” resource website, where you will
also find the links to the related publications.


TACIT FUTURES

What does it mean to rethink movement today?

People, data, goods, capital-everything is on the move. And the borders that
manage all this movement are virtually everywhere. They determine whether social
justice and alternative futures can emerge – or not. What does it mean to make
borders a matter of public scrutiny?

In search of answers, the BG project “Tacit Futures” (2016) presents group
projects, audios, and video talks by, among others, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak,
Jennifer Kamau, Brian Massumi, and Konrad Becker (from top). More on the “Tacit
Futures” resource website.

UN|COMMONS

An alternative to the corrosive inequalities fostered by neoliberal states and
markets is urgently needed. For example, a practice of collective ownership
known as commoning. It promises to make both economic and political
participation more equal and democratic. But what does it mean to initiate
processes that enable people to act collectively and manage the public goods and
infrastructures needed to create a life worth living for all?

In search of answers, the BG project “Un|Commons” (2015) presents video talks
(including by Yochai Benkler and Harsha Walia, right), collaborative projects,
and audios on the “Un|Commons” resource website.

BQV

The BG initiative “BQV – Büro für Qualifikation und Vermögen” (2012), brought
together more than 250 cultural workers to create a space for exchange and
alliances, and to organize workshops, exhibitions, and performances reflecting
on the problems and potentials of bottom-up organizing in Berlin.

The film, which you can watch below, documents the processes and includes
conversations with cultural workers, theorists, and media activists such as
Alice Creischer, Diedrich Diederichsen, Tanja Krone, and Tim Pritlove. For
