Softly Killing Ourselves
Societal infrastructure is causing human spatial logic to be gradually and unnaturally deselected. On a more sinister and deliberate self-destructive path is our perception of time. At best, how we perceive time is skewed and distorted. At worse, we will destroy the universe, or at least, this Einsteinian version of it.
Time has become deadlines, pay cycles, midterm exams, rent, mortgage, insurance, debt, anniversaries, social security, mutual funds, economic races, career ladders, social media likes and plus ones, and medications. Adam Frank wrote insightfully about the tyranny of modern time on NPR, where he touches on the human construct of time, our punch-clock life and how that mentality has altered us negatively in an anthropological sense. That is killing us. We are dying and we can't help but measure the entire process.
