Taking up Mark Fisher's idea that hauntology is the agency of the virtual, the sixth and final cluster of ARE YOU FOR REAL 2, Dead Futures: Figures, Hybrids, and Hauntology, forms an inquiry into history, conflict, and myth. The cluster gives voice to feminist thinking, forms of ancient storytelling that involve Indigenous knowledge, and science fiction. The artworks summon the specters of mythological and historical figures to digitally reimagine stories of resistance, revive traditions, and investigate conflict and colonization. What unites these works is the question of how specters of potential futures from the past influence discourse: how does hauntology, thus the non-existent, have real effects? If lost futures haunt the present, rediscovered knowledge may offer new perspectives.
From twentieth-century anti-fascist partisan Irma Bandiera and seventeenth-century artist Artemisia Gentileschi to spiritual encounters in Ecuador's Esmeraldas rainforest and tutelary goddesses linked to hydrology, the cluster evokes various modes of spectral causality. These are framed within Fisher's two manifestations of hauntology:
“That which is (in actuality) no longer, but which remains effective as a virtuality”—in other words, traumas and repetitions from the past that persist in shaping the present.
“A virtuality whose threatened coming was already playing a part in undermining the present state of things”—that is, futures foreclosed but still potent in reshaping thought and action.
Through poetic approaches and forensic methods, Dead Futures also explores digital portals and barriers, where the absence of imagery marks the "dark zones" of geofenced material and epistemic power—a digitally enforced blackout.
A planet devoid of a featured artwork circulates on the Dead Futures ubpage, a gesture of solidarity with artists facing censorship and persecution. It honors those who have withdrawn or refused to participate in ARE YOU FOR REAL Phase 2 in the current context around the ongoing wars, symbolizing the resistance born from oppression of dissent.
Jerusalem is a city famous for its walls: the old city walls, the infamous separation wall. Yet less known is an invisible wall that encapsulates the old city and its surroundings to make a regulatory no-fly zone. Centred on the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif and approximately 3 kilometres in diameter, this no-fly zone is instantiated by a “geofence,” a digital barrier stretching from the ground up into the skies to prevent drone flights into or take-offs within the area. Terra ex Machina explores this pervasive restriction. Central to the video work is a 3D photogrammetric model, created using thousands of drone images taken along the geofence. The model reveals an urban ring surrounding a void – a stark visualization of missing data caused by the drone’s inability to penetrate the area. This dark zone is not merely an absence of imagery but a manifestation of the geofence's material and epistemic power: a digitally enforced blackout.
Alternative layers are juxtaposed with the drone’s point of view – highly detailed aerial images produced by residents using kite and balloon photography techniques that evade and circumvent the geofence. In contrast to the steady route of the circling drone, these grassroots aerial views evince the chaotic and unexpected routes of objects guided by wind and strings attached to people standing on the ground. In the visual and sonic choreography of Terra ex Machina, these contrasting views and instruments of vision show the aerial space to be an emerging territory of resistance and contestation.
Hagit Keysar is a researcher and activist based in Jerusalem. Her work is practice-based and examines the political potentials of open-source, DIY, and community-driven technological practices in spaces of conflict and colonization. She has been a research fellow at the Weizenbaum Institute for the Internet Society, Berlin, a postdoc of the Minerva Stiftung in Berlin's Natural History Museum, and a postdoc fellow at the Minerva Center for Human Rights, Tel Aviv University. She is a senior lecturer in Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, Jerusalem, and heads the masters program in visual communication.
Ariel Caine is a London-based, Jerusalem-born artist and researcher. His practice centers on the intersection of three-dimensional photography, modelling, and surveying technologies, and their operation in the production of cultural memories and national narratives. His work engages with collaborative imaging methods as part of civic acts of aesthetic political resistance under conditions of violence. Ariel is a lecturer at the UCL’s Department of Culture, Communication & Media and was previously a project coordinator and researcher at the Forensic Architecture agency at Goldsmiths University of London. With Kineret Lourie, in 2023 he founded Chemist Gallery in London.
The online version of La Visión del Monte reinterprets a mechatronic light sculpture that tells of spiritual encounters in the Esmeraldas rainforest in Ecuador. Based on interviews with his father and other inhabitants, Speiser collected stories of spirits that reflect the unique cultural landscape of a maroon society merging elements of African, Indigenous, and Spanish heritage. These narratives, preserved through generations, speak of entities like El Bambero and La Tunda, who are said to appear as protectors of the forest, blending into the natural world as luminous figures or tiny glowing pebbles.
In collaboration with artificial intelligence, Speiser created imagery using paper cut-outs and synchronized its movements with his father’s voice, inviting viewers into a landscape of light and shadow. The work echoes ancient storytelling traditions in which analogue movement is used to animate narratives, while integrating technologies like THREE.js (3D web development) and AI for a digital reimagination. By combining AI-generated visuals with shadow play, La Visión del Monte transcends the screen, evoking the intimacy of fireside storytelling. It explores the interconnectedness of humans and non-humans, prompting us to reconsider our ties to nature, technology, and spirituality.
Simon Speiser is a German-Ecuadorian artist who works with nature and technology across various media. Exploring themes of origins and the interplay between human and technological worlds, between virtual reality and ancestral folklore, and between sci-fi and non-Western conceptions of technology, Speiser takes up storytelling as a tool in the fight against dystopian thinking, creating immersive sensory experiences that highlight the resilience and adaptability of pre-colonial cultures.
Artist’s Statement*
Riparia takes viewers on a poetic journey along the Rhône, mixing hydrology with mythology. Employing photogrammetry and underwater sensors, Škarnulytė examines the river’s benthic and riparian zones to reveal the profound effects of human intervention. The film interweaves images of the river with representations of its tutelary goddesses, embodied as post-human creatures adorned with crystal masks and flowing, colorful tails. These enigmatic beings emphasize the precarious balance between human and non-human realms. Set at multiple locations across the Rhône in Switzerland, Riparia invites reflection on the fragile interplay between natural systems and human activity while extending Škarnulytė’s ongoing exploration of goddess and serpent motifs. Mythic forms blend with contemporary environmental concerns in a meditative cinematic experience.
Emilija Škarnulytė is a Lithuanian-born artist and filmmaker. Working between documentary and speculative fiction, her video works take viewers through decommissioned nuclear power plants, deep-sea data storage units, forgotten underwater cities, and uncanny natural phenomena. Škarnulytė makes films and immersive installations that explore deep time and invisible structures, from the cosmic and geologic to the ecological and political. She is a member of the platform New Mineral Collective.
Visage is an audiovisual piece that reinterprets the legend of the “Mysterious Peacock,” a mythical figure in the pop culture of Brazil's Northeast. Capable of flying at the speed of light, the bird becomes visible to those undergoing an advanced transition, whose perceptions of time deviate from the linear. As the peacock flies, it creates energy portals and triggers profound transmutations. In northeast Brazilian Portuguese, visage means ghost. Drawing inspiration from the popular Cordel literature tradition and in dialogue with the visionary works of Octavia E. Butler, this work of science fiction invites audiences on a spiritual odyssey through the fractures of time and space, suggesting that time travel is possible through the body itself.
Jonas Van and Juno B are a Brazilian artist duo working together since 2020. The focal point of their work is the practice of speculative fiction, blending poetic and scientific elements, seeking to construct interactions between human and non-human bodies and monstrous ancestries. From an anti-colonial and trans perspective, they create non-linear and dreamlike narratives, presented within immersive works. Their research materializes through sound, image, and poetic elements, establishing fictions beyond coloniality, proposing transmutation as a central axis.

A Tumulted Space is a multimedia radio play in three acts, staged online and augmented through the website. It combines soundscapes and an immersive script to recount the harrowing experiences of two historical figures who withstood torture: twentieth-century anti-fascist partisan Irma Bandiera and seventeenth-century Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Figueroa uses her own voice to narrate the three acts, aligned through a sound work staged live for listeners at Bologna’s Arco del Meloncello, where Bandiera was executed by fascists in 1944 for not disclosing information about her comrades in the Italian resistance. The radio play blends Bandiera’s defiant silence with that of Gentileschi, who, while testifying against her rapist in a 1612 trial, had cords looped around her fingers and tightened—a technique of torture that marked her legitimacy, her body, and her legacy.
A score from partisan newspapers preserved in the Bologna archives has been adapted into the title melody for the radio play. As the acts unfold, dialogue, narration, and layered sound effects suggest distorted memory, emphasizing the sensorial aspects in recurring forms of resistance.
The second part of the work presents an AR-activated script in which 3D characters manifest as archetypes such as the amanuensis, slayer, and witness, reflecting the notion of a theater of history. Poorly scanned, pixelated script fragments, activated by AR, reveal disfigured texts and cryptic phrases, symbolizing the instability of historical memory and the struggle to surface hidden narratives. Rather than fully reconstruct the histories in question, the piece aims to preserve them as fractured echoes—warped, blurred, and resurrected.
The project’s mobile application is required to access the AR. Download the Tumulted app from the Appstore or Google Play.
Jazmina Figueroa is a Berlin-based writer. Her work appears in print, sound recordings, reading performances, staccato-esque written works, and other artistic and essayistic productions. Figueroa works with a critical and personal frame of reference to expanded media cultures, inner narratives shaped by technological developments, and the performative and affective capacity of media as a spectacle. She has a specific interest in the embodied, canonical, and socio-political underpinnings of these critical and personal frameworks.
