‘The Arts of Logistics: Artistic Production in Supply Chain Capitalism’ w/ @stanfordpress, 2024: sup.org/books/art-and-visual…

London, Awful-island
My book 'The Arts of Logistics' is out today. It tells the story of how the supply chain became the chief organizing form of capitalist production and the role art played in this history. It's also about blockades, the pitfalls of repurposing logistical infrastructure, & more.

I have a new essay in a special issue of TDR on “Performance, Possession, and Automation.” It’s the first of a few articles I have coming out on raw material and art, which I’m hoping will become a book someday. DM me if you want the pdf. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
