“When do words become worlds? From ‘network states’ declaring autonomy through landgrabs to a pluriverse of digital gardens spanning space and screen, how do we construct new realities within the powershell of the old? What kind of digital and physical spaces guarantee zones of autonomy and self-expression? With Infraworlding, the 0xSalon stages an exploration of the infrastructures which make new worlds possible, and those which hinder their emergence, on both material and metaphysical planes. In this discussion, we seek "common ground" between digital gardens as a concept, open and persistent virtual environments in practice like newart.city, and individualist desires for exit ‘to’ and exit ‘from’ community in emerging organisational forms such as network states.”
