Michael Stock talks with Timothy Morton before a screening of “Living in the future's past” (Susan Kucera, 2018), a documentary film which Morton appears in and co-wrote. Their wide-ranging conversation touches on Morton’s concept of the hyperobject, his work with Björk, the role of the philosopher, the Goth sensibility, melancholia, Morton’s involvement with the film, reptiles, and cinematic inspirations, such as “Life on Earth” (David Attenborough, 1979) and “Koyaanisqatsi” (Godfrey Reggio, 1982).
