Lion and giraffe fooling around
This is the peculiar image of the week, sorry Koert ; ) Excuse my crap quality.
What is Next Nature?
With our attempts to cultivate nature, humankind causes the rising of a next nature, which is wild and unpredictable as ever. Wild systems, genetic surprises, autonomous machinery and splendidly beautiful black flowers. Nature changes along with us.
Discussion
When I first saw this image, I found it just too corny. But with time I’ve started to appreciate it more and more. Crappy indeed, but also a simple and elegant visualization of the utterly schizophrenic condition we are in and how everyone is just trying to make the best out of it. This picture brings me some comfort.
