Seite - 187 - in Siting Futurity - The “Feel Good” Tactical Radicalism of Contemporary Culture in and around Vienna

187 #Hallstatt attuned to see spectral enemies because they have been trained to see enemies spectrally.18 As my examples demonstrate, that effort can be usefully supplemented by historically sensitive cul- tural practitioners, audiences, and academics, who are called on to redouble their efforts and engage in activating the ghosts of radical pasts in such ways that they reach and maintain a citi- zenry worthy of that name. That citizenry, like the Hallstätter and the Donnerstagdemo demonstrators, and the Arena occu- piers before them, needs to be capable of thinking and acting collectively to ensure that a good life is within reach of every “one,” which is to say every “thing” in a given environment. In other words, they need to be able to identify with the cloned granddaughter in The Fallen World rather than position her as Pandora 2.0 (or 4.0 or wherever we are now) as the film does. How we bring the drinking bros in the finance world into such a position (and they are, of course, merely the tip of an iceberg of toxic masculinity that needs to be melted with a very different kind of climate change), is the stuff of another study. The contri- bution of this one is to point out what all there is to be learned from a strand of Viennese culture not often associated with the city. Its feel-good focus on specific sites and places and their his- tories at least provides us with a starting point and workable scope for future efforts. 18 My thanks to Justyna Poray-Wybranowska for reminding me that Bud- dhism has also played a central role in my colleague Marcus Boon’s work.
