Evolution by Natural Selection does not follow a blueprint. This is the source of its true power – the power to disrupt. A hard determinism (HD) elides this fundamental observation, subsuming it into an almost equivocal condition response mechanism. HD asserts that if we could add up all the myriad number of physical interactions and calculate them, we could see nature’s blueprint. But life never evolves according to plan. What we’ve become, what we are is (obviously, painfully so) not working. The human condition is an unsustainable condition. War, genocide, ethnic cleansing, enough! There is no need to count the ways of our self-destruction, not enough biological digits to perform this brutal math. It’s not that we hope or pray that Homo Sapiens will evolve into something better, more lasting, more fit for the challenges of survival. We must evolve, or perish. This is our fate.

We must mimic this formula in our style and artistic temperament. Art not as prophecy but as progeny. It would be great to say this is what the future should be or can be. There is always the power of imagination. But our imagination will always fall short for it lacks the practical nature to make it effective. We seek not an evolution but a composition. Not an imagination, but a creative evolution. It is in service of this creative evolution, we must begin our project. A simple project where the stakes cannot be higher and success uncertain, for which, in its honor, I baptize the God Problem.
