As a researcher and a designer my methods combine participant-observation, spatial analysis, mapping, archival research, collaborative photography, and mixed media collaging. Like many before me, I enlist the visual for its affective potency which gives it the potential to unsettle our complacency with spectacular and everyday forms of oppression and violence waged against populations racialized, classed, gendered and sexed as “other.” However, this work does not merely attend to technologies of dominance and their effects and affects, but also to the quotidian ways people refuse conscription and exceed limits.
