Silent Evolution

Silent Evolution by Jennifer Piazza was screened at Timothy Ferris’ September 02011 SALT talk, “Accelerated Learning in Accelerated Times“. It features the art of Jason deCaires Taylor.

Taylor’s installation work is not found in galleries or typical sculpture gardens. Instead he places sculptures on the ocean floor, in locations where they slowly and silently accrue the trappings of a coral reef. Silent Evolution is an installation off the coast of Mexico.

Long Now chooses short films that convey long-term thinking to proceed many of our Seminars, a series we call Long Shorts.
