Genocide relates to a race.
Ethnocide relates to an ethnic group.
Indigocide relates to both an indigenous people and their indigenous culture.
Indigocide relates to multi-culturalism and its emphasis on colonisation as opposed to integrationism.
Indigocide is not an action undertaken by the government aiming at a direct extermination of a race or an ethnic group eg the construction of death camps or gulags, but relates instead to the actions of a government via their social, political, cultural and immigration policies that cause the indigenous peoples and culture of a nation to be marginalised and eventually disappear.
The fact that the Cockney language form of London will vanish in less than 30 years is an example of Indigocide.

State of Exception
The project speculates on a near-future scenario where the increasing pressure to control immigration and the escalating debts faced by BAA will create the conditions for a new State of Exception in place of Heathrow Terminal 2 (demolished in 2009). This new legal infrastructure will appeal most to the unlikely combination of tax exiles and asylum seekers who unite in a collaborative initiative to build an independent state exempt from UK law.
