CineCoup: Genesis - Sapience: The Search for Wisdom
Through a series of chalkboards, we ask some of the fundamental questions that set us on our journey of creating Sapience.

"Why do we escape..."
Jon holds one of our chalk boards. "Why do we escape through distraction and entertainment?" A pedestrian yelled: "Because it's easy!"

Preparing chalk art
Preparing chalk art
Suzanna fills in some words on one of our chalk boards. 'Have we become Homo Economicus?' What do you think?

"How can a finite planet support infinite growth?"
Among vast construction projects we ask the question. Our infinite growth model is not only unsustainable, it's impossible.

In the midst of such a serious project, you have to get playful. True wisdom lies in this 18 year old turtle that lives at our studio.

Love the message here! this exposes the root of our problem. Greed (mostly corporate) along with a lack of compassion , overwhelming complacency and even outright consent that perpetuates this current version of democracy and capitalism. Failure of the majority of people to dig deeper, educate and acknowledge these this situation could have dire consequences.

I love this project more and more every mission. Have you seen Collapse with Micheal Rupport? He goes hard on the infinite growth with finite resources paradigm.
