In this course, we will delve into themes of extraction, rest, and exhaustion in the context of the earth's depleted resources, the culture of burnout, and the relentless push toward data exhaustion. We will engage with questions such as: What if a work is created with its expiration in mind? What if its purpose is to rest? What materials could we use for decomposition and degrowth? How do we perform exhaustion for the camera? Can resistance to the exploitative nature of capitalism manifest as naps, encampments, and rest? We will explore extraction, exhaustion, and rest as starting points for non-production, slow production, degrowth, and what it means to expire a practice. Through this lens, we will critically engage with the pressures of hustle culture, the impact of bromaxxing, pre-workout supplements, metabolic rift, drinks for energy, drinks for rest, planetary mining, and delve into what Byung-Chul Han labels as auto-exploitative behaviors. This course will be composed of exercises, readings, a research presentation, and a final project.
