Hauntology & Dystopia Episode 1: Noah's Castle & Survivors
Hauntology & Dystopia Episode 1: 'Noah's Castle' & 'Survivors'.
Hauntology is a range of ideas referring to the return or persistence of elements from the social or cultural past, as in the manner of a ghost. It has been invoked in fields such as visual arts, philosophy, electronic music, fiction, cinema, television, and architecture. In the 2000s, the term was taken up by critics in reference to paradoxes found in postmodernity, particularly contemporary culture's persistent recycling of retro aesthetics and incapacity to escape old social forms. Writers such as Mark Fisher and Simon Reynolds used the term to describe a musical aesthetic preoccupied with this temporal disjunction and the nostalgia for 'lost futures'. So-called 'hauntological' musicians are described as exploring ideas related to temporal disjunction, retro-futurism, cultural memory, and the persistence of the past.
A dystopia is a speculated community or society that is undesirable or frightening. Dystopias are often characterized by rampant fear or distress, tyrannical governments, environmental disaster, or other characteristics associated with a cataclysmic decline in society. Distinct themes typical of a dystopian society include: complete control over the people through the usage of propaganda, heavy censoring of information or denial of free thought, worshipping an unattainable goal, the complete loss of individuality, and heavy enforcement of conformity. The best known by far is George Orwell's 'Nineteen Eighty-Four'. Other famous examples are Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World', and Ray Bradbury's 'Fahrenheit 451'. Some authors use the term to refer to existing societies, many of which are, or have been, totalitarian states or societies in an advanced state of collapse. Dystopias, through an exaggerated worst-case scenario, often make a criticism about a current trend, societal norm, or political system.
