Trauma is a Time Machine: A Cinematic Primer with Kwasu D. Tembo

Latest courses at AHRC: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/ahrc-courses If you could go back in time, would you change the past, even if it meant changing who you are? Is existing in time itself traumatic? Is power over time a cinematic endeavour, and what makes a good director an even better time traveller? This week on Acid Horizon we're joined by Kwasu D. Tembo to talk about his latest book Trauma in 21st-Century Time Travel Cinema, discussing the philosophy of time travel in films such as Primer , Timecrimes , and Predestination ; as well as how the experience of time transcendentally conditions the structure of the psyche.
