The diagram and essay On the Modes of Technical Extraction in Chile is a visual essay on the historical and contemporary extractive regimes affecting the southwest South American nation of Chile. It is a depiction arising from a collective research visit to the Valparaíso port systems, copper mines and communities of Chile for the Logistical Worlds project in March 2017. It attempts to draw out "how the long, narrow strip of land between the Andes and the Pacific Ocean that is Chile is continuing its long history of infrastructural-becoming."
Versions of the diagram and writings have appeared in the Logistical Worlds: Infrastructure, Software, Labour project's publication Logistical Worlds 3: Valparaíso with Open Humanities Press as well as Dark Mountain: Issue 20 "Abyss".
