REVENANTS - ( to the ironic technocrats like Ford and Stalin, and others, who think the past is no more than the food of zombies ). If revenants are not of the flesh but of the soul then they haunt within each of us. The dead, the past, are the nourishment of our souls and the main source of the fantasies of the living imagination. In attempts to balance our extra-natural sanity we must continually cannibalize the rational fears of our ancestors - convince ourselves we know better. Whistle to the dark of our long night. Frantically create heroic super-natural saviours from the ghosts in the machine. History has forever been a modern construct.
