A Southern Gothic Approach to A.I. Infrastructures

By: Jen Liu and Sheila Tahir

Date: July 2026

Based on a March 2026 trip to the hyperscaler construction site in north Louisiana, this zine explores a southern gothic approach to understanding AI infrastructure where the ghosts of extractive economies past are still present in the building of hyperscalers of today.

This zine was made for the 2026 DIY Methods conference.
