The latest piece in my personal series “In the Image of Our Maker” (ITIOM). A central theme in the series is how we shape and are shaped by the world around us, individually, and collectively. This piece is about humanity collectively moving itself to extinction, rather than to prosper among the rest of the universe. I don’t believe this is a future we are heading towards or need to head towards but, for whatever reason, apocalyptic scenarios seem to play out heavily in my subconscious.
