The six reports comprising this series are the result of the Society of Architectural Historians (US) H. Allen Brooks Travelling Fellowship. The project took the form of a series of trips to regions and sites implicated in Australian resource imperialism in the early twentieth century: Australia, Germany, England, Nauru, Christmas Island and Palau. The portfolio presents a form of creative travel writing that blends historical scholarship, original archival research, exegesis and direct observation. The six reports are titled as follows:

1. On Invisibility: Chemification and Material Movements

2. On Accumulation: Phosphorous and the Global Metabolic Rift

3. On Form: Infrastructuralism and the Schutzgebiet

4. On Territory: Extractive Sovereignty and Australian Empire

5. On Layering: Surviving Angaur

6. On Improvement: Waste, Wheat and White Possession
