Genre Bender: we are all connected -- and that is OK

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2012)

Lana, David and Tom did a wonderfully masterful job collaborating on this effort,which they all must consider the most important work that they have achieved so far and may have resonance on the global zeitgeist. The karmic theme with the nuance of a Bodhisattva(remember Buddha was originally a Hindu too)is appreciated, such as in the form of Sunmi 451, but in an understated way that actually helps to further the argument with touching poignancy. This quixotic collage of stories between 19th and 24th centuries all serve to further the argument that we just might deserve to have arrived beyond our solar system with our good human stuff intact a few of my old head hunter colleagues included). We perhaps collectively forget how much we have sacrificed to arrive where we are today or in the future worlds of Sunmi 451 and beyond. For future Bodhisattvas of our collective imagination, let us not ignore the "tru-tru" (reminds me of Talk Pigeon in Papua New Guinea) in front of our noses, lest we be compelled to repeat the fallacies of dystopian futures hopefully less traveled. The overarching message: let us all learn to love one another as we explore and ultimately understand the universe together irrespective of person, place or time.
