[from late last night]

The sci-fi future is here, and what are people doing with it? Mostly trying not to die?

Distorted vision of a positive future? Possibly, but what can we do except attempt the minimum? Re-establishing minimal peace/jutice/stability is a negative goal...

Consider: balance of primal and refined (not just superimposed, or counterpointed, but ... reconciled?); expressions of yin/yang or sometyhing, explorations of scale -- the missing core of aesthetic potential, lost until the reconcilitation of all things...
