Abstract
This paper is concerned with developing an understanding of the lived time of experience. Reconsidering Bergson's duration, it is argued tha t by privileging flow to the exclusion of stasis, he does not take his own concern with contingency far enough. Through an analysis of exper iences of rupture I argue that discontinuities and moments of stasis a re integral to the movement of lived experience. What is at issue here is how we live the future, different experiences of anticipation of t he future, and understandings of temporalities of the self.
