Down South Anomalies #66 Hauntology: Eldritch in the Backrooms
Published 2 years, 1 month ago
Description
Jay and Aspasia explore the nexus point where 21st century philosophy, cultural theory and popular fan based art collide. This collision reflects a world of lost futures that are haunted by the imagery and ghosts of past generations. Exploring the graphic art of Simon Stalenhag's "The Electric State", the hauntology writings of cultural theorist Mark Fisher and the creepypasta that became 'The Backrooms'. Evidently popular culture is now telling us that the new elephant in the room goes by the name of Eldritch.
