MISANTHROPOCENE

Where does the mind travel to and over what vicissitudes does it range as we peer out the window of an airplane hurtling through the sky? Passing landscapes, intricate webs of natural and engineered space, inspire contemplation of the ancient and endless creative capacities of our kind. And yet, despite our continuously expanding perspectives, other ancient capacities still haunt the darker regions of the mind.

In this video poem from Gross Americana, frightful thoughts bubble up in that window seat. Strange beasts appear on the wing. Terrible reveries take hold.
