Biography
Constantinos Marcou (London, 1988) is a writer, an architect and an urban designer. He studied Architecture at the University of Cyprus, continuing his studies at UCL where he received his Masters Degree in Urban Design. Following his studies, he became an editor for a local architectural magazine in which he wrote his column titled: “Chorographies”. His research projects investigate the complex relationship between architecture and socio‐political reform in the context of emancipatory struggles. During the last years, he has been engaged with several projects, for which he received international awards and recognition. Some of these projects include the Bamiyan Cultural Center Design Competition organized by Unesco, the Republic of Korea and the Republic of Afghanistan, in which he received second prize runner –up, and the "Next Helsinki Competition" in which his project titled: Baltic Tale of Nothingness was shortlisted. He also competed at the “Europan 13” competition with the project: “Grounds for the Common” which was selected as one of the shortlisted entries. More recently he wrote the soon to be published, illustrated story titled: “The Great Island of Replicas” that received an honorable mention at the 2019 Fairytales Competition, organized by Blank Space. In 2020, he was selected as one the twenty‐five fellows for the Future Architecture Platform European program. Marcou participated in various publications. He exhibits and lectures both nationally and internationally.

Luce de Lire in residence - Workshop

Digital Enclosure and it's Revolutionary Other

our residency is organised as a long-distance liability-residency.

Thursday 14 January 2021 / Event time: 19.00

Following 2 successful and though-provoking seminars in 2020, we would like to invite you to the 3rd session of the workshop ‘Digital Enclosure and its Revolutionary Other’. In this meeting, we will discuss original accumulation of cyberspace through 2 texts by McKenzie Wark.

During the European 14th through 16th century, the great enclosure consisted in the literal fencing in or off of previously commonly used land so as to ensure that it could only ever be used privately from then on. This led to the impoverishment of millions and drove people to move to the cities, where they would sell their labour power. A similar process has been happening in cyber space for about two decades now: platforms are trying to keep you on their vicinity so as to mine your data and force you into subscriptions

In this workshop, we first focus on classical original accumulation and its conjoined manifestations in Europe and its colonies. We then look at its most current formation – the enclosure of the internet – and a possible queer enclosure, namely the industrialization of the libidinal economy in a pink totaliterian picture.
