This presentation and workshop explore not just what it means to become unreadable in the face of technofascistic and hyperindividualizing regimes, but also what it may mean to cultivate our lively capacity to read. To read reality, read others that exist outside our bubbles, read other species and types, read realities beyond our radius, habitus, and syllabus. Socioecological literacy. Drawing on the new book ‘The Plot is on Fire’ about struggles for earthcare and against death-bound tech and its bubbles, these sessions look at how we may relate to technology and literacy from the solid grounds of our interactions, soil, territories, and bodies.
