The Story of Intelligent Evolution
This project aims to investigate how the human ability to invent has completely revolutionized the way we - for better or for worse - interact with this planet. I hypothesize that since the discovery of agriculture some 12,000 or so years ago humans have directed their own ‘evolution’ by inventing tools and technologies to solve their problems rather than trying to adapt to changes in their environment. However, while this has meant incredible advancements in what we can now achieve with a click of a button or a push of a paddle, such advancements may also lead to a world where our very survival is threatened.
