For the matters of such places are both too “painful” and too “familiar” (Bateson, 2000, p. 141) for conscious thought to inspect them, what we have instead are logical structures that automate thinking - a habitual automation that runs not through neurons but through the non-human flows of energy, material, and labor within such infrastructures. Would an inspection into such black-boxed infrastructures reveal not only glimpses of their inner-workings but also matters of thought upon which we have ceased to consciously address? Matters of which persist on the outskirts, peripheral, shadowed lands and landscapes deemed to unconsciousness?
