<p>In this episode, we speak with artists Sophie Mellor and Simon
Poulter of Close and Remote about their sprawling, collaborative,
and genre-bending project We Are Making a Film About Mark Fisher.
The conversation traces the origins of the film: how an initial
spark in Fisher’s writing grew into a hybrid work that fuses
documentary, performance, collective creativity, and hauntological
fiction. We explore how Close and Remote approached the challenge
of translating hauntology into visual and cinematic language: the
textures of lost futures, the atmospheres of cultural stagnation,
and the ghosts that structure the present. With over seventy
contributors and much of the production unfolding openly on
Instagram, the film became an experiment in distributed authorship
and decapitalised making. Mellor and Poulter reflect on how this
process worked in practice: the unexpected turns, the moments of
productive chaos, and the ways the networked contributions
reshaped the project’s trajectory. They consider, too, how Fisher
himself might have responded to such a mode of production, and the
tensions inherent in staging anti-capitalist creative work on
corporate platforms.<br>
