W H A R FAG E Sharjah Creek 2008 –2009 W H A R FAG E W H A R FAG E Sharjah Creek 2008 – 2009 Barawa Berbera Bossaso Kismayo Kudhaa Mogadishu Salaya Sharjah W H A R F A G E is a two-part project by CAMP for the 9th Sharjah Biennial. This publication accompanies a series of radio broadcasts at the Sharjah Creek. From 18 –21 March 2009, from 7–10 pm, one could tune into Radio Meena on 100.3 FM, within a radius of about 2 kilometres from the port. W H A R F A G E is part of the ‘Past of the Coming Days‘ programme, curated by Tarek Abou el Fetouh. CAMP was started in November 2007 as an artist’s space in Mumbai, India. CAMP is not an ‘artists’ collective’ but a workspace gathering ideas, sensibilities and energies. www.camputer.org Designed by Europa, London www.europaeuropa.co.uk Printed by Spenta Press, Mumbai www.spentamultimedia.com Printed March 2009, in an edition of 750. W H A R FAG E A project on the creek in Sharjah, from where a large number of dhows leave for ‘Somalia’. Somalia, a collection of semistate entities, is also thereby a kind of ‘free trade zone’. This arrow of trade – in which the ship is not an escape from but an entry into, an engagement with, the space of conflict – is our subject. It may offer a few ways to think about how ‘business‘ and the spectral lives of these commodities and traders, point to life beyond war or ‘global capital’. With pirates up ahead and economic crisis at their tail, these mountains of goods and their sailors may trace old trade routes, but map out something new: a contemporary landscape of used things, ‘break-in-bulk’ trade, diasporas, and giant wooden ships being built in Salaya, Gujarat. The project consists of two parallel pieces: a book, and a radio transmission from the port. D irecti o n ( D isha ) Or the arrow of trade. In one of the most popular references to ships in western philosophy, Foucault describes the ship as the ultimate ‘heterotopia’, a fragment of space that contests or compensates for the spaces we usually live in. The ship is ultimate for two reasons, he says: because it has been since the sixteenth century the ‘great instrument of economic development’, and because it has simultaneously been the greatest reservoir of the human imagination: ’In civilisations without boats, dreams dry up, espionage takes the place of adventure, and the police take the place of pirates’. 1 The geographer David Harvey is somewhat blunt in his response: ‘I keep expecting these words to appear on commercials for Caribbean cruises. […] the cruise ship is indeed a heterotopic site if ever there was one; and what is the critical, liberatory and emancipatory point of that?’. 2 For Harvey the ship as metaphor (and other Foucauldian heterotopias: cemetries, prisons, brothels, saunas) are ultimately fantasies of escape … and this is not enough. It is not enough, he says, to merely point to ’other spaces’, as somehow ’different’ from the rest. This does not produce any actual engagements, nor does it produce new spaces. Harvey is a bit quick, for our tastes, to dismiss the possibilities and pleasures of the cruise. But his interpretation does point to something interesting: that many ’spatial’ concepts suffer from a curious lack of ’orientation’. One might even say, a politics. To play with Foucault’s examples, for instance, we could imagine extraordinary transformations occuring in any excursus from the school to the brothel (and back), in the road from the old-age home to the cemetery (difficult to escape), or in the forced move of housing ’heterotopias’ towards the edges of the city. To describe these, to understand them, is not merely a question of temporality, or of learning what lies in-between ’other’ sites. It is a question of suggesting the possible trajectory, i.e. the combination of forces, locations and times, of our engagement. So how do we understand these ships, moving in a direction opposite to ’escape’, willingly and repeatedly entering zones of conflict? What lights up the spectre of lives and goods that engage with this risk, with pirates, war, and typhoons? The short answer of course, is in Foucault’s first ’reason’ for the ship’s ultimateness: business. Somaliland, Puntland and other nearby lands are ’markets’. What is happening here is common, ancient, has a complex history that passes through colonalism and globalisation, and continues to be commonly known as ’trade’. Trade is like so many words, in that it has grown to obscure so much. In the 1400s trade meant ’a path, track, a course of action’. As treads and trades grew more numerous, they began to represent a field, a completely different kind of noun from the ‘path’. After encounters with morality and capitalism, the phrase becomes much more about suggesting relations of balance, of exchange, of ’fair exchange’. Trading posts, trademarks, and trade unions soon follow. Some things escape this, of course. The phrase ’trade wind’ doesn’t come from maritime commerce, but from the older sense, of ’a regular, habitual course’, a ’tradition’, even. These arrows repeat themselves, even as they are spiralling and complex. Their recurring directionality is not the opposite of complexity, it is the evidence of it, of systems that sustain themselves in a complex world. The modern term trade – like business, or smuggling, or networks – has an in-built, and growing, opacity to direction. What is being smuggled? From where? Such information is not required to establish the identity of ’smuggler’, or ’trader’. As abstractions go, trade appears to have a number of motivations to appear non-hierarchical, reciprocal, and matter-of-fact. In India, the combo words ’IMPEX’ and ’EXIM’ became symbols of this ’balance’, and were part of the names of many businesses (particularly in the pre-liberalisation phase, and in the course of ’opening up’, through the 1990s). The suggestion that both import and export happens somehow equally, was more attractive, perhaps more strategic, than specifying what was actually going on; that ’we are sourcing t-shirts for export’ or that ’we import used tyres and retread them’. But the pose, the outward appearance of ’balance’ also had to do with anxieties of the state, and transnational economics: India seeks to maintain a ’trade balance’ that denotes, supposedly, that it is not being a complete loser in the global market. GATT and the WTO ensure a ’balance’ such that certain groups are always losers. Global corporations subsequently make the very idea of ’export’ somehow frozen, quaint. The story is a bit like that of the Balance Sheet, in which everything that goes in is necessarily, superficially, equal to what goes out. In which the entire production, the work of business is somehow effaced. Symmetry occludes our sense of beginnings and ends, lacks and excesses, overflows and residue, desire and drive. What does direction mean? Kierkegaard speaks of love as an arrow, without reciprocity, in which to love is full, self-sufficient. It means that we are able to speak of parasites and pirates, with affection. It means that the fundamental unit is not mass, it is momentum. Velocity, not speed, Africa, not geography, the lines, not just the quantities. Not up or down, but sideways. This does not mean that we just replace one abstraction with another. It means that when boats going to Somalia carry dentist’s chairs and steel and used clothes and cars, and those coming back carry charcoal, or frankincense, and often nothing at all, we can sense the change in perspective, and perhaps change our own. The boats may remain the same, but everything changes, smells different, stacks up in a different way, is differently valued. Everything changes, but not to its inve rse. The way out is not the opposite of the way in, it is another arrow. Trade is not just a fact; it is an act, it is work. In the acting out of trade, shippers, ships, dealers, loaders, cooks, crooks, pirates and other agents fill up a world that is larger than their own. They plan for the next destination, they prepare. They leave loved ones behind. They look to the horizon. Ships are built, and sail out with the tide. It is not enough to say that differences between here and there pre-exist. It is that the imagination of being able to ship something, this possible line of thought and movement, produces difference, openings, and opportunity, again and again. This is the sense in which arrow of trade becomes a plan of action, a work, that may deepen the tread upon the old path, but continues to produce, anew.

R A D I O The paradigm of radio broadcast, opposed to that of the telegraph, suggests a landscape, rather than a point, of reception. This presents three threats: of equal potential in all directions, of hidden spaces being reached, and of an equal authority to become the source from which sound emanates. As radio became more commonplace, its regulatory frameworks had to keep up with these technical characteristics, by restricting available ’spectrum’, making radio transmission itself illegal, and so on. Soviet Russia in the 1930s made it mandatory for all buildings to have ’wired radio’, or state-provided audio infrastructure in homes. Of course, this denied the possibility of receiving any stray channels from the air. This was then non-radio radio, which in 1960s was expanded to two or three channels, still wired to the studios, producing a ’piping’ model for content distribution that was also ’insulated’ from the outside. In 1932, Bertolt Brecht had complained about onesidedness of radio, and appealed to the radio to ’step out of the supply business’. The passage may be worth quoting in full, because it also refers to ’pipes’: ’But quite apart from the dubiousness of its functions, radio is one-sided when it should be two-. It is purely an apparatus for distribution, for mere sharing out. So here is a positive suggestion: change this apparatus over from distribution to communication. The radio would be the finest possible communication apparatus in public life, a vast network of pipes. That is to say, it would be if it knew how to receive as well as to transmit, how to let the listener speak as well as hear, how to bring him into a relationship instead of isolating him. On this principle the radio should step out of the supply business and organize its listeners as suppliers. Any attempt by the radio to give a truly public character to public occasions is a step in the right direction’.1 In recent times the problem appears to have inverted itself. With ’Broadcast Yourself’ (the slogan of YouTube), it appears that non-alienated, spontaneous media productions are no longer in short supply. The result is perhaps not what Brecht-like supporters of ’communication’ had in mind. Jodi Dean calls the results a ’communicative capitalism’, a circulation of information that doesn’t result in any political shifts. A circulation for circulation’s sake, blogs referencing blogs, friends poking friend’s friends. Communication fully realised, but also fully contained, unable to escape its own skin. Further understanding of this could proceed in two ways: one is to follow Badiou in the 14th of his ’Fifteen Theses on Contemporary Art’ and acknowledge that: ’Since it is sure of its ability to control the entire domain of the visible and the audible via the laws governing commercial circulation and democratic communication, Empire no longer censures anything. All art, and all thought, is ruined when we accept this permission to consume, to communicate and to enjoy. We should become the pitiless censors of ourselves’. 2 On the other hand it may be too early to dismiss the question of ’censorship’ altogether, even as control of the airwaves themselves is so obviously heavy-handed reaches ridiculous extremes. About 200 organisations applied for licences for ’Community radio’ stations after this opportunity was opened in India in November 2006, after many years of lobbying. Until recently only two licences have been granted. In Somalia, where radio is quite popular, several radio journalists including two directors of stations have been killed in 2007–08. 3 ’We’ could become pitiless censors of ourselves, but there are many who haven’t even spoken, yet. The internet still means little to people such as the shippies on Sharjah Creek. It maybe worthwhile to remember the basic fact of radio broadcast … its voice, its mobility, its ability to penetrate physical and social boundaries... as a space of possibility. To do this, we may have to undo our favoured model of ‘communication’, to return to broadcast itself, and the open space of reception it generates: the space of listening.

That is, when import and ‘transshipment’ duties are not applied, and traders can operate from the port as if it did not exist in any country. The free port is crucial to the concept of re-export, upon which the UAE’s economy is traditionally based. Dubai became a ‘duty-free’ port in 1894, when the then Sheikh Maktoum decided to give foreigner traders tax concessions. Since the 1930s, goods have entered and left Dubai with relative impunity. Recipient countries (such as India in the 1960s) have often interpreted this as a form of smuggling, and tightened regulations on imports such as gold. Within Dubai of course, this activity has always been seen as perfectly legal, even foundational to the state. With globalization and GATT, as free ports became a standard feature of many world economies, UAE ports have marketed more aggressively, with Dubai Ports World even offering to lease and operate all major ports in the USA’s, an offer ultimately rejected in 2006 by US Congress on grounds of ‘national security’. 1 Dhow trade is very much a part of the ‘free port’ environment, if more informally and more specifically as a ‘very cheap port’ situation. The current boom in dhow trade between Sharjah and Somalia, parallel to the financial crisis, appears to be mirrored neatly by a much earlier crisis, in World War II. During that war, food and other supplies ran short, because normal trade routes were not active. The British, who had various deals with the sheikhdoms came to the rescue with large supplies of sugar and rice. Sensing opportunity in this glut, Dubai traders bought and re-exported these goods to the Iranian black market, just across the strait. (Cheap goods today can be sourced from warehouses and shops that are not doing very much business in Sharjah. Somalia is hungry for these goods. The actual mechanics of purchase and order are controlled by a surprisingly small group of actors at each end, and what could be described as highly personal initiatives.) At the Sharjah end, the heightened volume of goods to Somalia is actually attributable to one person, a Yemeni trader who has extensive connections with Somali traders and port authorities. The story goes that he has over the past year managed to relocate a large chunk of the Somalia-bound trade from Dubai’s Creek to Sharjah’s. It is in ‘Somalia’ that the Free Port acquires its most powerful dimension. Mogadishu, Kismayo and Bossaso are free ports not because of the WTO, but because of various configurations of partial states and private enterprise, not particularly inclined to implement a customs regime. This means that much of Somalia is ‘Duty Free’ or duty flexible, so that the arrow that points from Sharjah to Somalia actually has both its tail and head in places beyond. In China and Kenya, for example. As all this becomes linked to the vahanvati construction boom in Salaya, in India, the logic of these two ‘free ports’ doing brisk business in times of crisis, unfolds. They reveal themselves to be ‘freer’ ports, in very concrete terms.

Business here has been hit by the general recession. 27 — Loading into open holds. Such “break-in-bulk” goods are often bound for ports along the Somali coast that do not have facilities for container traffic. 26 — Sharjah Creek appears to be thriving. Up to five wooden dhows dock in series against the wharf. Metal boats are kept on the other side. Cars zoom past. 28 — Used refrigerators and barbed wire are among the array of goods waiting to be loaded for Somalia. 7a — Fixing the covering tarp, getting ready to sail. 6 — Charcoal being unloaded from MSV Shraddhasagar. 31— Some dhows have manual cranes. Loading continues until dhows sink to the water mark painted on their sides. 32 — Metal rods and wooden dhows. A n n o tat i o n s f o r I m a g e s Image 2 and 3 Used cars are high on the list of exports from Sharjah to Somalia.The ship is loaded in layers, with most of the food produce, and other assorted break-in-bulk cargo stored in the holds, which are shelved with planks. The vehicles, several in number – cars, mini-vans, SUVs, and even huge trucks – are lifted by cranes and loaded on the upper deck of the dhow. Bought in second-hand car auction sales in Sharjah and Dubai, these vehicles can be seen standing on the wharf labelled with a sticker saying ‘SOLD’. Sometimes they are shipped with goods stuffed inside. On reaching Somalia, the vehicles are sold either for personal use, or to private enterprises who provide public transport services, often even crossing over the Ethiopian and Kenyan borders. Sailors contend that unlike India’s market, which imposes an over 100% import duty on cars, Somalia’s unregulated economy – ‘vahan pe hukumat nahi hai’, there is no governance there – presents no such barriers to the mobility of these motors. Beside entire cars, spare parts – ranging from car rims to motor heads, new tyres, engine oils, which are unavailable in Somalia – also make their way over by sea. Diesel, also in high demand, is always stocked as surplus fuel in barrels on or under the deck. Sometimes it comes in use as collateral in Somali waters and Somali ports. Image 4 Boat after boat that goes to the Somali coast from Sharjah, packed with a litany of miscellaneous goods, comes back with one thing: charcoal. The Somali economy has been largely based on the rearing of livestock. The export of livestock from Somalia to Sharjah traces trade links that the Gulf countries have had with the Somali region since colonial times, In Europe’s scramble for Africa, the British made Somaliland a protectorate and built the Berbera port to ship goats and sheep across the Gulf of Aden to feed their garrisons in Yemen (see image 20). Export of ‘Berberawi’, as the black-headed goats are called in the Middle East, continued unabated till very recently, and the UAE’s meat consumption relied mostly on imports of Somali livestock that used to peak during Haj and Eid. In 1998 and 2000, following an outbreak of Rift Valley Fever, most Gulf countries banned the import of livestock from Somalia (and other countries of the Horn of Africa), which adversely affected the economy of the region, as boats returned empty. Nowadays, even with the provisions of quarantines and the enforcement of health standards, livestock trade has remained erratic. In Somalia’s export economy, livestock has been outrun by charcoal. This increase in charcoal export, a consequence of the restrictions on livestock, is in turn also a result of another ban: charcoal production is prohibited in the Gulf countries as in most of the first world. The southern part of Somalia, with its Transnational Federal Government and militia-controlled market, exports an abundance of charcoal from its port in Kismayo (see image 21 and 24). Kudhaa, an uninhabited island used solely for charcoal production, where trees are felled and buried in pits and burned to form charcoal, serves as another such port. The UAE still depends on Somali meat for its grills. Now, due to health and environmental laws, whose effects work completely against Somalia’s traditional pastoral economy, it also depends on Somalia’s charcoal to fuel those grills. Image 5 and 6 On arriving in Sharjah, sailors are made to deposit their seaman’s passes with the authorities at the Creek Customs Office, before crossing over to park their vessel at the dhow wharfage on the other side. The captain is handed a crew list: a sheet of paper that verifies who his crew members are, what their nationality is, which boat they belong to, and who he, their captain, might be. ‘We don’t have passports. Also, we don’t have CDCs (Continuous Discharge Certificate) like the people who work on merchant vessels have; instead we have seaman’s passes. CDCs are only issued for crews of larger shipping vessels, not for those on wooden boats. A CDC allows entry into any port, anywhere, anytime.’ While crew members, for the most part, eat their meals and spend their nights on the dhow, they do have permission to visit the city. Until last year, sailors say, they would be given temporary photo IDs on entering Sharjah, which they would carry around and even use to go to Dubai. Now, with no other photo identification on them, the crew list, the original of which tends to remain in the captain’s cabin on board, is the only proof of a sailor’s legal status in the UAE; furthermore, its only applicable to Sharjah. ‘Mostly it’s all right, but sure, sometimes it’s a problem. Just the other day two members from the neighbouring launch got picked up and taken to a police station in Abu Dhabi because they were thought to be loitering around and were found with no identification on them. The captain had to go all the way with the crew list to get them released. ‘Does this happen often?’ ‘Not very, but it does happen.’ ‘And every time it does, the captain has to go and rescue them?’ ‘Well, if one of your men gets caught, what are you going to do? Of course you go and find him.’ If the crew list is confiscated, the captain must pay 500 AED to retrieve it. If the crew list is lost, the boat must cease to exist. On leaving Sharjah, the captain produces the crew list for the authorities at the Custom’s Office and the seaman’s passes are returned to the sailors.The boat sets out to restore a strange legitimacy that these sailors only seem to have at sea. Image 7 and 8 Most often, the manual labour of loading is done by the crew themselves, who are paid wages against the total weight and nature of the bulk. Somali agents and traders can often be seen on the boat with the sailors supervising some of the tasks, hanging out over tea a bit later. Cranes are hired by the Somali agent and manned by Somali employees. When the goods are loaded and the inspection is complete, the agent and the captain spend a couple of days at the Creek Customs Office submitting their documents at the counter window. It takes two to five days to complete this process, after which the customs office prepares the manifests, which contain a complete list of the general cargo, their weights and values. An invoice is calculated to include the duty paid against the weight of the load – 2 AED per tonne, and docking charges – the first 6 days are free, after which the port authority levies a 20 AED fee per day, making Sharjah Creek by far the cheapest port in the UAE. The answers to the questions about ‘why dhows?’ and ‘why from here?’ begin here. The log books were what the authorities first handed us when we requested to see the records, which consisted of handwritten entries of dhow trade from this port, including the date of arrival or departure, name of vessel, its number and country of registration. In the logbook of departure, under a goods column was a reference to a ‘manifest number’ (image 7a). The cover page is a yellow coloured invoice which mentions the manifest numbers, the docking fee, wharfage, and total duty paid against weight of the cargo. Attached to it are several forms with details of the ship’s inventory taken at the time of inspection, and the final export manifests often running long (see image 8). We finally got access to the much awaited port records on March 4, 2009; the staff of the Creek Customs Office spent copious hours with us, looking up the logs for trade to and from Somalia, which we then removed from box files in a storage room. Others we were able to print (see image 7b). We left the Creek Customs Office three days later with literally thousands of documents of various corresponding forms, written mostly in Arabic. Sanjay Bhangar wrote a database software over-night to incorporate information from various forms and fields and a committed team of interns and employees of the Sharjah Biennial camped at the office through some intense nights translating and entering the data into his programme. The 288-page book, designed in London, went to press in India on the morning of March 16, 2009, to be hand carried in time for the opening of our radio show two days later. Image 9 to 16 Salaya, once a tiny fishing village, also has a tradition of building vahanvattis, the local name for wooden ships. The sailors on these boats sail not only between Iran, Oman, Yemen and the UAE but increasingly and now routinely to Somalia. Salaya’s boat making industry has grown quite visibly in the last two years; boat owners in Salaya are making larger dhows, sometimes on commissions from the Gulf. We hear that 1,200 tons is quite normal now, and there have some that have been with a 2,000 ton capacity. A great deal of this is influenced by the fact that the ancient trade routes between the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf and East Africa have been reactivated, due to the following configuration: Somalia requires supplies, Sharjah Creek is one of the few ports that has a wharfage exclusively for dhows, and Salaya, with its builders and sailors, anchors these openings, and demands, shapes and sails these vessels carrying the trade to and from the Persian Gulf through ostensibly dangerous waters. This year, despite the global financial crisis, trade with Somalia carries on unhindered, continuing to fuel not only the construction of bigger dhows, but also the livelihood of their crews, almost all of whom hail from Salaya and its neighbouring towns Mandvi and Porbandar. ‘The boat business in Gujarat is more of a family business. It is passed on from father to son or to nephews. In Salaya, children usually make their first trip on boat at an age of 12–14 years accompanying either their father or uncle. After the first trip, most of them drop out of school and start working on the boat itself. For them, the boat is their home. Even when they are in Salaya, they end up spending more time on the boat than at their home. Staying on the boat is also a way to avoid family tensions and frustrations.’ Salaya’s population of 20,000 is predominantly Muslim. Literacy like in the rest of Gujarat is low; almost all the village’s young men work on boats as ship hands and crew, as carpenters and gaiders (contractors), or otherwise, as fishermen. Often a new dhow fitted with a tiny motor sails from Salaya, only to be refurbished with a far more powerful one in the UAE And the ships spend a great deal of time on the Sharjah Creek, as this has become their most frequented docking bay. During their 9 month period at sea, families communicate with the crewmen via VHF radio on bands that are assigned to ships. Down time occurs during the monsoons when ships and crew return to Salaya to rest and repair, and for sailors, a time to marry. ‘In those two months back home, a lot of us get married and begin families. All the eligible bachelors are back home then and their marriages are arranged by their families. Like this boy here, we have to get him married when we return. But, often when we leave, its as good as giving “talaaq” to our wives.’ Image 18 to 19 Somalia, a collection of quasi-government and semi-state entities, an economy based largely on the export of livestock from the region, a private telecommunication system with the cheapest cell phones rates on the continent, and a post-war diaspora interconnected and spread all across the world. ‘When we sail out of Sharjah we put back the Indian flag as we are in international waters. When we enter the waters of the nation who’s port we are to dock at, we have to mount their flag. It’s a law. If its Mogadishu or Kismayo we use the blue flag, it’s really simple, with a white star. We made one on our own.’ What about Somaliland? ‘Ah, for Berbera, it’s just like the Indian flag with a black emblem. But upside down, with La ilaha il allah written on it.’ Image 25 and 26 In the wake of a global financial crisis, business in the string of shops across the Sharjah Creek has slowed down. Around sunset, migrant workers from South Asia hang around a couple of empty plots, clustered under street lights. Many of them have started buying tickets to return home, unable to cope with the pressure of paying back their guest-worker loans at a time when their salaries are also being withheld. Of recent, many have even approached sailors on the old Sharjah port to ask if they could sail back to India on the boats with them, offering themselves as ship hands in exchange for a passage. On the port, trucks line up, offload wares and leave; the loading of dhows goes on well into the night; a strange scuttle of human bodies carrying sacks around a maze of stacked boxes, up a slim ramp and onto the deck. Seemingly unaffected by the economic turn, dhows traverse pirated waters, as trade with war-torn Somalia goes on. Sailors from Salaya say that had it not been for the demand from Somalia, their dhows would not have much to carry, and not so many places to go. For Salaya, Somalia is then, in a sense, somehow symptomatic of possibilities. Though sometimes troubled by pirates, there seems to be a consensus among sailors, agents and traders, that when compared to container traffic and navy vessels, these relatively ‘smalls’ dhow, are rarely ever a desirable target, bound as they are for Somalia, carrying essential supplies and commodities. And that, after all, this is business, and that this will go on. Image 28, 29 and 30 ‘We take a whole super market with us. Sometimes even used medical dispensaries on the boat with us. Vahan pe kuch bhi nahin hai, there is nothing there’ ‘Focussing on things that are exchanged, rather than simply on the forms or functions of exchange makes it possible to argue that what creates the link between exchange and value is politics…This argument…justifies the conceit that commodities like persons, have social lives’ 1 1 — Arjun Appadurai, ’The Social Life of Things’, 1992 (p. xiii) R eg i st ry o f D how s Comoros Al Adnan Al Faisal Amar I Hud Hud M.S.V.

C A M P was founded by Ashok Sukumaran, Shaina Anand and Sanjay Bhangar in Mumbai, India in 2007. Not an ‘artists’ collective’ but a temporary gathering of ideas, sensibilities and energies, CAMP centres around an ability to work ‘infrastructurally’, to produce configurations of technology, space and time that locate human agency in the ‘networks’. In 2008– 09, CAMP’s members have had exhibitions or other participation in: Digital Media and Democracy, Tactics in Hard Times. (MIT Press); Metropolis Copenhagen; Dakar Biennale-off; Dictionary of War (Taipei Biennale Edition); Manifesta 7 (Companion Book); AV Festival Newcastle (Broadcast Yourself); 48˚C: Public.Art.Ecology, Delhi; The Power Plant, Toronto (If We Can’t Get It Together.) Kharita 01: Symposium on Urban trajectories in Cairo by Pericentre projects and the Serpentine Gallery London (Indian Highway), among other events and residencies. CAMP are co-initiators of the PAD.MA footage archive, and a number of other projects out of their home base in Mumbai. CAMP is an artist-run space in collaboration with Khoj International Artists Association, New Delhi.
