title = "Common language: academics against networking and the poetics of precarity",
abstract = "Academics Against Networking (AAN, 2019–2020) was a zine compiled by Nell Osborne and Hilary White and circulated for the cost of postage. The zine{\textquoteright}s two issues comprise lyric essays, poetry, prose, Tweets, images, and combinations thereof that respond in some way to the provocation of the title. The contributions take a wide variety of formal approaches, but they share much in common: each writes against networking{\textquoteright}s instrumentalization of grammar, against its impoverished modes of thought, and against the debased sense of subjectivity and community the logic of such a grammar engenders. In this chapter, we read the vital contributions in AAN as articulating a poetics against and in spite of the market logics of the contemporary academy.",
