Stieglerian Infraculture

Possibility and being in a contributory economy

Abstract

This workshop models and explains Stiegler’s proposal that the entropic limits of the Anthropocene be overturned through developing a “contributory economy.” The contributory economy develops the value of new possibilities for individuals, expectances, and expressions of the art of living. The workshop models a contributory economy through its dialogical relational space, use of time, anticipation of profit, collective participatory experience, play on knowledge, interpretation of the technological, and emphasis on care.
