1 One Hundred Years of Sumbiotude : Resisting the Extinction of Emotions Glenn A. Albrect , 2020 single work essay
— Appears in: Griffith Review , April no. 68 2020; (p. 159-168)
'I am a child of the Anthropocene, born in 1953. I have lived in a period of history also known as the 'Great Acceleration'. The speed and scale of material change since 1953 is breathtaking, so much so that I sometimes feel I am a passive observer of this change, not a participant. I struggle to contemplate it all, bogged down within a form of magical realism where the uncanny, fantastic, disruptive and improbable weave in and out of what once was predictable phenology, the patterns and rhythms of life.'
