Productive Failure in a Machine-Centric Universe

Pepita Hesselberth

Abstract

Drawing on the writings of Borgmann, Virilio and Lazzarato, this article comments on the prevalence of failure in Draft: the failure to communicate, the failure of technology, of perception, and arguably of war. Productive failure, I set out to demonstrate, is the key component of the film’s cultural critique.
