Arc 4
Beyond-Just-Human
The ‘New’ Golden Ages
The world is not made only by and for humans, it is bigger than this, it lasts longer than that. The extinction of humanity is not a lament after the rupture, but a celebration of its ongoing links to those that begin again. We can look for our genealogy spiralling through Arc 4, in the sentience of lake side algal slimes and future Martian potatoes.
‘The stone is God, but it does not know it, and it is the not knowing that makes it a stone’ (Meister Eckhart quoted in Yourcenar 1985, xvi).
