Short summary
This paper argues that quantum field theory's concept of temporal indeterminacy troubles distinctions between micro and macro scales, revealing how nuclear warfare's effects entangle past, present, and future. It proposes an embodied 're-membering' of victims of ecological and colonial violence, reframing the 'void' not as absence but as a spectral domain of entangled life/death and a ground for imagining alternative futures.
