Public/Private — Cyborg Citizenship Available to Purchase

How does one compose unbeginnings? En media res (No new media here!), this chapter operates as a microscript; a closet drama, aerated by cloud chambers of flash fiction and ___nets. Refusing the reinscription of binaries (the columned opposition of “public/private” and “cyborg citizenship”; the carceral logic of racial capitalism reanimated in Trumplandia’s “Prevention through Detention” policies), this chapter sings and pings in the rain. In the spirit of Donna Haraway’s observation, “Cyborg writing must not be about the Fall, the imagination of a once-upon-a-time wholeness before language,” it regenerates across genres, borders, and technologies.
