Episode 21 - State Of Exception : With and Against Technologies

Welcome back to a new episode of Becoming the product. Today, I'll share some of my thoughts on the concept of a state of exception and how new regulations have been facilitated or reinforced with the help of technology. In a second moment, we will question whether or not states of exception could be implemented for technological development. You can support my projects!
