  • It’s a useful reorientation on how to organize structures and systems in more resilient and dialectically materialist ways. The value of a rhizome is the continual process of connecting disparate elements into a mesh. It’s all about routing around the attempts to control or siphon flows via critical choke points. The comparison I like to consider in the context of the internet is the “best-effort” protocol of TCP/IP versus the “walled gardens” that have come to dominate most usage of the internet today. The semantic web was a similar concept to the rhizome in many ways, and the fediverse is a good example of trying to bring it into actual usage.
