humanity

The evolution of humanity, from one advancement to the next.

The Starlet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. If a bear shits in the woods and nobody sees it, did it really happen? If a woman wails in space and nobody’s around to hear it, did she really lose the love of her life?

The Word of an Artificial God
Chapter 1 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But, for the first time in his life, Ponticus felt no fear. Despite his status as a stowaway on a military cruiser hurtling towards its destination amongst the great unknown of the cosmos, he was at peace. He knew that under the unprecedented guidance of Maiiyah, all of life’s prodigious mysteries would unravel for him, and armed with that knowledge he need not fear the vacuum of space, or whatever awaits him at his destination.

New Worlds
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. The quantum mechanics seem to evade the highest and best minds. But, We, are Here to impart that the structures of life Here, can be altered with the correct application. There are knobs, dials and switches.

Carrier lost
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. It’s one of those trite aphorisms that means nothing of course, hearkening back to the times of organic matter and bodies that compressed gasses and passed them through pressurized tubes across membranes that controlled the vibrations in the gaseous material and transmitted sound. Sound. Imagine that. Sound…

Tight Fit - Chapter 1
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Ray Turner remembers this phrase over and over again, on loop, as he quickly gathers himself from bed to answer the Major Brigadier’s urgent 4AM distress call.

The Second Space Race
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. In fact, they’re banking on it. It was around the turn of the millennium that the second space race started. The ultra-wealthy – the moguls, the royals, the oligarchs – mainly men, competing against each other about whose rocket ship is bigger – and stronger, and faster, and better, and carbon-neutral, of course. They had already conquered the seas with their superyachts, the skies with their private jets, and society with their economic and political clout and corruption. Space was next.

Space Oddity
No one can hear the screams in the vacuum of space, or so they say. And as I float there, screaming, I realized they were wrong.

Jove's Heart
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Aboard a nice, pressurized spacecraft like the Fulminus, however, anybody can.

Mourning Star
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That's all I wanted now, to drift quietly into the sound of nothing. I had searched for that abyss here on earth but 2022 had evolved our planet into one giant satellite that could stream a steady kind of tinnitus you could actually feel. There were no more places one could dwell among the mountaintops and contemplate the Now. There was only the perpetual buzz of communications resonating through the Social Registry chip implanted in every citizen's molar. I needed to find fluent silence.

Into Darkness
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I can hear everything. A vibration of noises sings a disturbing melody all around me. I feel as though something terrible has happened, but my mind is entrapped in confusion.

Athena
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But I can feel it rising in my throat—an unstoppable tsunami triggered by an earth-shattering realization in the pit of my stomach. Like the raging columns of water from the ocean floor to the wave’s crest, every atom in my body leans toward the one thing I feel prepared to do, and that is to scream.

The Vegan Extinction
» KEY POINTS Today it is possible for the world to become completely plant-based; and it is already heading in that direction for reasons of economics. Despite that, it does not mean all problems related to animal husbandry will be immediately resolved, nor that new issues will not be created. To prepare for the future, we have to be honest about the real impact of our actions in order to plan and act accordingly.
