Hi,

Today’s Commentary is written by EV member Josh Berson. Josh is an anthropologist and novelist whose work explores the history of human niche construction with a view to elucidate the ecology of sentience, our kinship with other presences living and geospheric, and the practical demands of food and shelter. With Carla Nappi he directs Time Kitchen, a studio for exploratory thinking. Parts of this Commentary have been adapted from Josh’s 2021 book The Human Scaffold.

Enjoy Josh’s Exponential View, and thank him by sharing this essay far and wide.
