Complicit Chips: A Reader in Progress for Infra-Resistance

A yellow reader held together with a black binder, on top of an Infrastructural Resistance booklet, on top of a piece of paper reading: "DO (NOT) TAKE FORWARD"

This (ever in progress) reader was put together at the occasion of the Complicit Chips worksession, in which we tried to approach the involvement of the computer industry in organised violence at borders and in occupied territories.

The collection of texts wasn’t assembled with the goal of covering all aspects surrounding the complex conflations of software, hardware, global finance, digital aesthetics, securitisation and militarisation. Rather, it aims to provoke thoughts, trigger conversations and support our collective attempt to articulate interdependencies between global financing, AI, hardware development, and computer graphics. How to resist the deep complicity of these industries in extreme violence, inflicted on sites of extraction, on occupied territories and on migrating bodies?

We hope that, beyond the context of the worksession, the circulation of this reader can support fellow comrades sharing the desire to pursue divestment from an industry which provides the material means to both our most mundane activities and human rights violations all at once and fully intertwined.

This reader was put together by Femke Snelting, Helen Pritchard and Sofia Boschat Thorez in October 2024. If you have any remarks, suggestions, or work you would like to share for a next version, please reach out to us at: titipi@titipi.org

And if you would consider adopting software attempts at not being complicit in supporting the genocide in Palestine, you can consult the following booklet: https://titipi.org/pub/infraresistance.pdf
