Ended Tuesday and welcomed Wednesday after my swim with Lost Futures a studio album by American guitarists Marisa Anderson and William Tyler, released August 27, 2021, via Thrill Jockey...
The album is inspired by, and named in reference to, Jacques Derrida's philosophical concept hauntology, and particularly Mark Fisher's writing on the subject in his work Ghosts of My Life: Writings on Depression, Hauntology and Lost Futures....Tyler said that, having read the book subsequently, he found Fisher to be "not a very hopeful person in his writing", and that the pair "wanted to re-contextualize something about the concept of lost futures. There's an opening there rather than a closed door."
