About

Heat Death is an irregular newsletter from Asher and Saul Elbein, journalists, wanderers, and space-time archeologists.

It's an archeology of worn-out narratives—of ecological NGOs and capitalist finance, big entertainment companies and technological marketplaces. It's about the long, old roots of the world that’s coming. It's about cultures of ecology, and the ecologies of culture. It's about extinction, evolution, and the collision between the exotic and the native. It's about how comics media took over the world, and Star Wars reflects the long decline of American empire. It's juxtaposition juxtaposition. It's remix. It's us fucking around.

It's Heat Death. Join us.
