Summary:
"A technographic study of e-recycling and neo-colonial mining filmed in the Agbogbloshie electronic waste ground in Accra and illegal gold mines of Ghana. The video constructs a mise-en-abyme as critique in order to dispel the capitalist myth of the immateriality of new technology -- thus revealing the mineral weight with which the Cloud is grounded to its earthly origins."--VDB website.
