The environmental philosopher 
Timothy Morton mentioned my work at

Two illuminating books by Timothy Morton: The Ecological Thought and Realist Magic: Objects, Ontology, Causality. Morton writes about his term Hyperobjects: "It is as if background and foreground have been shockingly suspended...at once intensely real yet at the same time uncannily withdrawn and unspeakable. Hyperobjects profoundly change how we think about any object."
