Three members of the Collapsology / Crude Futures group — Richard Hames (co-author of The Rise of Ecofascism, Polity, 2022), Washington-state based writer Beau-Caprice Vetch, and UK-based producer/writer/DJ Jake Colvin (NKC) — discuss the idea of collapse, its historical role in consolidating power, its geopolitical vs. biopolitical registers, its relationship to spirituality, and frameworks for approaching adaptation to the worlds revealed in its wake.

The occasion for this conversation is the publication of a zine and card game that the Crude Futures group — which started in the New Models Discord server and also includes members Mina Miller, Jack Tarpey, phm, Matīss Groskaufmanis, Jon Benjamin Talleräs, Cat MacGregor, T.M. Wilson, and Marcelino Llano — created over the past two years and released this July.

Printing of the zine and card game was made possible through proceeds from the NM Codex Y2K20, and initial proceeds from the Crude Futures sales will go toward production of whatever NM-sphere initiative emerges next. The zine and card game are available at https://shop.newmodels.io as well as select bookshops in London and Berlin.
