Machines Against Measures

Sotiropoulou, Irene (Edge Hill University

Omschrijving

Can we avoid measuring in our work? Or are we trapped in a metrification dystopia by the new digital technologies used in workspaces? Monetary-theorist Irene Sotiropoulou explores and critiques the production means that were created for capitalist profit-making, showing how we can subvert these and use them for our own non-capitalist purposes. In times of capitalist restructuring and multiple social reproduction crises, there open up new possibilities to experiment with quantity, measuring, machines and digital technologies. Using everyday examples from grassroots organisations, this offers new insights into how to be inventive with what we have at hand, revealing a more utopian vision of technology and work, based on re-defining how we measure what we do.
