Description
The author presents ideas on an emerging mode of production based on information and digital data-what the critical theorist McKenzie Wark christens as ‘vectors’-which is arguably replacing capitalism. Vectors are lines of economic activity connecting producers and consumers extensively across space through intensive technologies of storage and processing. They are increasingly abstract and digitally-mediated through the internet, smart phones and the sensors and devices of the smart home and the smart city.
