So the idea was to take the top elements of the survey and turn them into a painting. The color and shape where to influence the base of the work, and the music and animals to influence subconscious elements in to the work. We play the music of the winning band in the background while working on the piece to influence the outcome. The parameter was to complete the piece within 10 minutes, to keep with the theme of uncontrollable random samples. This was oddly freeing and made for a new and unique experience. Quite frankly, the responses where different than I expected (other than animals). It is interesting to see what people at large are more preferable too, other than our personal interests. I hope to use this method in the future to a more modified system to help create better works in the future.

If Technology Fails Us, We'll Need the Stars




How I see the future in 60 years:


For technology, I believe it will be very advanced and very powerful. It will finally become sustainable and innovative. Since all our precious metals will be gone due to the rapid growth for mining, we would go in search for them in other terrestrial planets. This forces our technology to become more sustainable because it becomes harder and harder for us to find/reach these precious metals. We will become more dependent in outer planet resources. Immortality will also be a possible future for humans.

For most of humanity I believe life on earth will be very dark. Our large population would lead us to low resources and a very polluted earth. Due to the search of precious metals for our rapid growth in technology, their will be no more forests. Animal diversity will be the lowest ever seen in human history. There will be many deaths caused by starvation and the unpreparedness of our civilizations. There will also be an increase of people freezing their bodies.
