This is a site about invisibility -about that which resists visibility, and that, which is refused visibility by mainstream culture. The evolving mission of this site is to provide artists, scholars, activists, and educators, access to a range of resources including: textual, visual, video, digital- about art, autonomy, radical politics, and the social production of creative dark matter. Never before has the overlooked value of social production received so much attention from business entrepreneurs, marketing experts, website developers, management theorists, policy makers, but also artists, critics, and intellectuals. The mainstream markets are rapidly enclosing some of this missing mass. However, much dark matter refuses to be transformed into what some pundits call the "new engine of the networked economy." This resource site is dedicated to those social producers who refuse to be made visible except on their own terms.

collectivism after modernism

There is a specter haunting capitalism’s globalization, the specter of a new collectivism. We experience this specter daily now in two complementary forms, each with less or more force than the other depending on where we are in the world. Both of these forms have deep roots and complex genealogical structures and each returns to us now mostly as a ghost but as a ghost with a hardened, cutting edge running the length of its misshapen and ethereal outline, a ghost whose concrete effects and ungraspable vitality seem evermore to determine our present.
