I enjoy thinking about the hauntologies in our time. I found it very funny that so many lo-fi videos on youtube are made to imitate a 90s anime style. Something about the videos and style is comforting to me and others despite us having never lived through that time. Synth-wave and other genres on youtube also try to imitate a past that never was. Modern hyper-pop of the 2020s does the same to the early 2000s.
The concept of Hauntologies was first introduced by Jacues Derrida[0]. I think it goes hand-in-hand deconstruction.
As an aside, poolside.fm, in addition to being a cool project, also imitates a past that never was[1].
