Zusammenfassung:	"In what ways could we imagine a world different from the one in which we currently live? This is the question addressed by the essays and conversations in Futures and Fictions, which explore possibilities for a different "political imaginary". With discussions around decolonization, new Afro- and other futurisms, post-capitalism, science fiction, and new kinds of social movements - and the intersections of these with contemporary art practice and visual culture - Futures and Fictions creates a space for alternate narratives and image-worlds that might be pitched against our neoliberal present. With contributions from Mark Fisher, Ursula Le Guin, Kodwo Eshun and Oreet Ashery."--Back cover Futures and fictions -- Revisiting Genesis >>> -- History will break your heart -- Stages, plots, and traumas -- Afrofuturism, fiction and technology -- How much the heart can hold -- Luxury communism -- Extraterrestrial relativism -- Scavenging the future of the archive --Automate sex : xenofeminism, hyperstition and alienation -- The xenofeminist manifesto -- Sonic utopias : the last angel of history -- Flicker-time and fabulation : from flickering images to crazy wipes -- Surface fictions -- From financial fictions to mythotechnesis -- A century of zombie sound -- The ones who walk away from Omelas
