Watch this video ad-free on Nebula: A video about Elon Musk and the future. Timestamps: 0:00 SpaceX Mars 01:49 Introduction 05:35 Tesla, Ford and A Tale of Two Cars 08:53 Futurism 13:00 The Slow Cancellation of the Future 17:53 Back to the Future 21:31 Muskian Futurism for Whom? There's perhaps already a distinct “Elon Musk Video Essay“ genre here on YouTube. Hopefully, though, this takes a different approach to those which are already out there. Rather than focussing on I take a look at why Elon Musk has become such a revered figure in recent years and why so many people have embraced Elon Musk's Loop, Tesla, Hyperloop, Spacex, Mars Mission, Neuralink and other projects. Drawing partly on the work of Mark Fisher and Franco “Bifo“ Birardi, I consider how human perceptions of the future (at least in the advanced capitalist nations) have changed over time.
