Constant will join its friends and comrades from the Translocal Pipas Club for a panel at the 2024 edition of Transmediale Festival in Berlin.

This public conversation brings together a network of networks that has been organising collectively towards joyful, systemic techno-political change for many years.

The common desire across this constellation is exploring modes of resisting the financialized, extractive modes of Big Tech companies which profit heavily from online activities on the platforms they provide, aggressively pushing into new areas and turning any content into a commodity.

Deeply implicated in military and carceral operations, the infrastructures of The Cloud regime reinforce historical racist structures and support new forms of colonization through digitized oppression. Urged by the current political climate, we decided to share some of our modest proposals for moving networks and political engagement away from toxic cloud environments.

From Counter Cloud Action to Digital Discomfort and trans*feminist servers, our technodisobedient practices aim to unsettle computationally mediated depletion and activate paths towards anti-colonial tech.
