Let’s take a trip to the future, somewhere like 2250…
“The early 2000s was a time dominated by increasing globalisation, a massive rise in international trade, and the gradual shift of the dominant world power from the US to China and India. It was a peculiar time, where everyone took great pride in just being a human, a messy, unpredictable, wet-biology machine with only one advantage: the emergent property of consciousness. Later in that century, we started to have breakthroughs in our understanding of consciousness, and we learned how human and machine could fuse effectively. The seeds of our current, highly successful, hyperconstructionist, biometamorphical science and organisational principles were sown in this era.
During this time, called post-modernism, a curious movement had emerged. This movement was obsessed with hunting for a particular branch of the species Homo Sapiens that we now call Homo Entreprenaurus. It was believed at the time that there was a mutation of the species, which, with great urgency and ingenuity, could conjure up world-beating corporations out of nothing, bend reality and even space-time, and come back from seemingly impossible situations where the odds were massively stacked against them. They could even reemerge, much like the mythical phoenix, out of the ashes of prior failed endeavours, and reconquer a lost empire.
