Enclosure Logic
Cloud monopolisation, proprietary silicon patents, compute gating by venture capital and defense contractors.
Common Metabolic Logic
Fabrication capacity and planetary datacentres treated as public atmospheric infrastructure unencumbered by rent extraction.
"The computational infrastructure sustaining artificial intelligence therefore ceases to appear as a collection of technological assets and instead reveals itself as part of the common metabolic apparatus of civilisation, comparable not to commodities circulating through markets but to language, atmosphere, oceans, ecosystems, and accumulated knowledge..."
Scarcity mechanisms and capital barriers removed; access governed by collective self-organization.
Palandri argues that discussions confined to "ethics, governance, transparency, or responsible innovation merely rearrange the language while leaving untouched the institutional architecture reproducing exploitation, hierarchy, and enclosure."
