To what degree do we hope that "the human" makes it into the future?
Recursive structure: what does it mean for humans to be the only organism that we are aware of that are self aware?
Climate Change - we cannot stop global warming. So how do we position the human in relation to that? Intense planetary scale change will lead to many deaths.
Are we the only self aware and intelligent species in the universe?
How will media work in the future?
The "scape": mediascape, ideoscapes, technoscapes, ethnoscapes....
What kind of human is produced?
extra-planetary: rule sets that govern life, AI, programming languages....
"theatocracy"
Queen of avant garde
