Writing 1: Interconnection: the 13th Moon
Collective speculative writing exercise for which we have taken the offered services, semantics and imag(inari)es from the website of data centers NorthCand Interxion, as our point of departure. From this we have constructed a skeleton that we are both going to elaborate and refine separately but bringing them back in parallel connection! Diverting but never divorcing.
The method is inspired by reading "The twelth Moon" in Sepculative Facts, it's a collaborative story written on whatsapp by Sepake Angiama, Clare Butcher, Byron Kalomamas. The story speculating on the conservative election win in the UK at the end of 2019.
