'Intercalations 5: Decapitated Economies' is a book of provocations wherein the reader-as-exhibition-viewer learns that the “Head,” despite its interminable attempt to rule over the body, necessarily underestimates the sophistication of corporeal desire when such desire is unleashed in accordance with the principles of a general economy. With contributions addressing a variety of acephalia and attendant operational deformations, from the invention of the guillotine to the maintenance of the museum repository, from annual shareholder reports to Indigenous sovereignty struggles, and from neuroscientific advancements to brain surgery narratives, as well as the housing crisis, ocean pollution, settlement and cerealization, wheat banks, political murder, human extinction, and much more.
