...Eva-Lynn Jagoe Would we know solarity if we encountered it? And where do we look for the potential openings that such a new energy system could enable? Georges Bataille’s The Accursed Share has emerged as a key text in the theorization of energy because of his distinction between the restricted...

...Jordan B. Kinder The ongoing history of setter colonialism is inextricable from the infrastructures of energy and extraction that provide its material foundation.
