Abstract or Description

Can an object be autonomous when autonomy as a disposition or a relation becomes unavailable to its viewers? It could be argued that if there is no space left for an autonomy of the subject, the autonomy of the object becomes something akin to a Zen koan. The internal, unemphatic other to capitalist values becomes a talisman of another civilisation or spacetime, not ours.
