This paper explores the significance of meeting architecture, inviting us to consider what sociopolitical possibilities are made and foreclosed by the ways distinct meeting forms circulate bodies and faces. The goal of the grassroots organization Massachusetts Against Solitary Confinement (MASC) is to end solitary confinement – a form of carceral torture – in prisons and jails throughout the state. Long-term political and pedagogical engagement with MASC staff and the survivors of solitary confinement who comprise MASC's base reveals that the zoomiverse shift of 2020-2021 had several divergent effects on the organization's work. The zoomiverse facilitated expansion of MASC's relational solidarities, enabling MASC to engage meaningfully with national and international networks engaged in similar struggles for policy change. It also enabled new strategies for elevating survivors' voices in policy and elite-run advocacy meetings. But the zoomiverse also undermined the power and efficacy of this strategy. For potential allies outside of the survivor community, hearing the stories of survivors of state torture entails profound bodily discomfort, which we suggest is itself psychically transformative. The accordion architecture of zoomiverse meetings enables participants to easily dissociate from discomfort, to evade what we call "affective disconcertment." Such evasion seems to inhibit the transformation of consciousness of potential allies that is necessary to change policy.
