Society and Space has posted a conversation/interview that Harlan Morehouse carried out with me in early October.
While it’s focused on Ecologies of the Moving Image, we talk about plenty of other things — nature and culture, the eco-humanities, the Anthropocene, ontology, critical geography, Buddhism, Zizek, Peirce, nationalism, withdrawn objects, and more. And plenty of films, from Westerns and Bergfilmen (Weimar Germany’s mountain films) to science-fiction, Children of Men, Avatar, and the work of Herzog, Von Trier, and others.
(Had the interview taken place just a few days later, we would have talked about Gravity, too. What a film.)
is there something in the water these days?
