What colour is the future - or rather, what colors are the futures? Broad and enlightening in its coverage, this collection explores the notion that there is not just one visualization of the future, but many, stretching across and beyond shades of utopian brightness and dystopian darks. Visiting futures that belong to the realm of ghosts, it calls for a hauntology that deals not only with spectres of the past but also the of future, offering a fascinating engagement with both colonial history and hyper-accelerated societies.
Guided by a diversity of colours, contributors speculate on non-anthropogenic futurities, theorising on the richness of an essentially complex and disordered material universe. The volume's critical approaches range from speculative realism, oceanic biology, and philosophy and politics, to posthumanism and queer theory. What all these offerings have in common is a strong focus on materiality, the inhuman, and the innovative possibilities that are brought into light by this 'fabulated spectrum'. They combine the potentialities of philosophy, art, and science, in that they all forge a relation to chaos, or, an undeterminable 'new.' Powerful and thought-provoking, this book illuminates different possibilities of gazing upon futures in nuanced and novel ways.Thanks for subscribing!
