hauntology

Hauntology is a concept that explores how the past continues to influence or linger in the present, much like a ghost haunting a space. It suggests that certain ideas, memories, or cultural elements from history persist subtly, shaping current experiences and perceptions even if they are no longer visible or active. Haunted by what once was, hauntology examines how we deal with these echoes of the past—how nostalgia, loss, or unresolved issues can haunt our collective consciousness, influencing our identity and society today.
