To think completely, in absence of completion and difference, watch beneath the surfaces we have ... more To think completely, in absence of completion and difference, watch beneath the surfaces we have folded to concretion. Carefully checking for creases where solid edges are shown to be fault lines, concealing uncertainty below with great intention. Suspended from connection points between connected objects, sitting in the series summed of this sequence; spinning through nowhere, without arithmetic to mark our geodesic topology in paces. To see that distance, whorling in joyous expansion, thinking closer and closer to dream, our image escapes containment. In thought, thinking deeply, surfacing transparent constructed accumulations, sinking to the verge of possible extension. Demarcating the citadel collapsing before our eyes, existed in transposition.

In response to the impending ecological distress facing human populations globally, this paper outlines the evolution of a stable future for the people of the Pacific Northwest (PNW). In an attempt to make clear the metabolic imbalance that has formed in the linkage between human populations and their environments, an ecological critique of capitalism is developed to articulate an alternative politics for the PNW. By collapsing the dichotomy between nature and culture, this paper forges the basis for a radical environmental ethic grounded in new a narrative that prioritizes place and combats the existing narratives that compose our political, cultural, and scientific histories. What emerges is a politics of environmental justice and ecological sustainability contra capitalism that critiques traditional conceptions political borders and advocates a system of cross-boundary bioregional management.
