Environmental Time

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This video essay juxtaposes selected footage from Nomadland (2020) and Anthropocene: The human epoch (2018) to explore the films’ hauntological landscapes, proposing a creative engagement with the dilated durations of ‘environmental time’ (Nixon 2011). By weaving together different temporalities of extractivism and extinction by means of multiple-screen format, it poses questions about the capacity of videographic ecocriticism to make viewers notice the violence of delayed destruction. Conceptualized and first draft completed at the Workshop on Videographic Criticism, Middlebury College, 2024.
