M.M.A. -Massive Mesh Ambitions- Special Feature #03 / Keller Easterling “Resistance in ‘space’ under globalization”

A media project to speculate and discuss about GHOST IN THE SHELL “M.M.A. -Massive Mesh Ambitions-.”

 

The theme of ISSUE #03 is “Boundaries.”

 

In M.M.A. -Massive Mesh Ambitions- Special Feature #03 / “Resistance in ‘space’ under globalization” by Keller Easterling, a professor and architect who teaches at Yale University while actively writing, shares her insights in an email interview.

 

The interview invites readers to engage with terms coined by this architect, such as ‘extrastatecraft’ and ‘political superbugs.’ By doing so, one can grasp how contemporary forms of power—where ideological divides between left and right or the secular and the transcendental blur—manifest their influence in physical, architectural, and design-oriented ways.

 

It is only available in Japanese, the English version is coming soon.
