Today i am starting our new brief, Earth Artifacts. We have been asked to look at The Golden Record and come up with a new way of presenting it's information. Will it be on a disk again? or on a tablet? or even presented as a hologram?
What is an 'Earth Artifact'?
“For millions of years mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk, we learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas enabling people to work together ... to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by talking ... and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future with the technology at our disposal - the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking”.
Stephen Hawking
