Mark Fisher: Light in the Dark Enlightenment - A Screening of We Are Making A Film About Mark Fisher

​Mark Fisher: Light in the Dark Enlightenment
Screening of "We Are Making a Film About Mark Fisher"

Join us for a special screening exploring the life, thought, and enduring influence of cultural theorist Mark Fisher (blogger behind k-punk and author of Capitalist Realism).

We Are Making a Film About Mark Fisher is a 65-minute cinematic experiment exploring the continuing relevance of the late theorist’s ideas on capitalism, culture, and the future. Blending documentary, performance, and hauntological fiction, the film follows Parkins — a time-slipped character — through ghostly landscapes and digital spaces, tracing Fisher’s thought from the 1990s to our algorithmic present.

Created collaboratively by over 70 artists through Instagram (@markfisherfilm), the film embodies Fisher’s call for collective imagination beyond capitalist realism.

​The screening will be introduced by writer and curator Rafi Abdullah with a short excerpt from Two Names to One Place: (Re)Visions of Heaven and Hell and capped off with a post-screening public open mic eulogy session.
