We are interested in the production of the commons at the same time that we understand the current impossibility of completely freeing questions of sustainability from commercialisation. This is the beginning of a series that models without being a model, a working that is thinking or process—an attempt to address the scripts and imbalances that define most of our daily relations in an era of late capitalism. Are we makers or audiences? Neighbours or friends—buyers or sellers? To consider such relations in a mutually beneficial and non-hierarchical manner is to examine the commons from another perspective, to find and enact the not fully scripted.

    are we automatically valorizing the non-hierarchical? i recall deleuze, guattari, delanda et al. warning us against that very thing, no?

    @sportsbabel: i’ve had a lot to fight against hierarchically speaking, so yes, perhaps this is a mistake. your recollections are unknown references though, so please do enlighten!

    @yinan: 还有还有,哈哈!请关注!

    We are valorizing this non-hierarchical.

    shoot, am away at a conference and don’t have sources with me, but the Delanda piece (which is all based in D+G) refers to meshworks and hierarchies and to be careful not to favour one too much over the other. perhaps a browse around here might be of interest:

    michael: excellent addendum. :)
