Replying to @sanjanasjokes @BlueLabyrinths

An excerpt from my book on the anti-hauntology debate hosted on @BlueLabyrinths and @xenogothic in 2021, where I talk about the electronic music of Chinese artists like 33EMYBW and Gooooose, and why hyperpop was never really anti-hauntological... tripleampersand.org/anti-hau…

A ghost haunts the end: the ghost of the future. Mark Fisher writes in What is Hauntology? that “the future is always experienced as a haunting: as a virtuality that already impinges on the present,...
