Responding to the intensification of “military operations” in Ukraine, Gaza, and Iran, this special issue of e-flux journal advocates for a return to a materialist genealogy of “operativism”—a concept that spans labor politics and scientific management throughout the twentieth century, from the Soviet avant-gardes to postwar cybernetics to modern warfare and the multiple interpretations of Harun Farocki’s “operational images.”

Monday Colloquium | IFP

📍 Nehru Room
🗓 24 February 2026
⏰ 3:00–4:00pm

On Tuesday, 24 February, Lorenzo De Lellis will give a talk at the French Institute of Pondicherry titled 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘊𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘈𝘐 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨: 𝘖𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘓𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘢.

The lecture explores how India’s long-standing BPO and IT-enabled services sectors have laid the foundations for today’s AI data labeling and model training work.
