Celebrate Earth Rotation Day: Its Global Impact
Happy Earth Rotation Day! Today, as we celebrate the incredible rotation of our planet, let’s also take a moment to think about how this mighty spin isn’t just a constant—it’s actually changing! Over long periods of time, Earth’s rotation is gradually slowing down. This shift can have significant effects on everything from the length of our days to weather patterns across the globe.

The Anthropocene as TED talk
"Executive Director of the Australian National University's Climate Change Institute, Professor Will Steffen, takes us on a journey through the science measuring humanity's effect on the planet. Using tangible, real measures, Will shows us the profound change in the planet since the Industrial Revolution and argues that now, more than at any other time, humanity is the single most influential factor in global changes; so much so that we should recognize that now is the age of mankind - The Anthropocene."

Michael created this video as part of his A Walk of Life exhibit in 2011.
"The video projection shows powerful machinery performing mining operations.The video’s audio accompaniment consists of a stock operator’s voice reacting to the unprecedented price fluctuation of the 2008 stock market crash. On that particular trading day, over one trillion dollars were evaporated over the course of only a few minutes of trading activity. The events in this space have a cause and effect relationship to the reflective litter bin described earlier.
The collision of destruction is uncanny...

"In June 2012, "Welcome to the Anthropocene"—a film about the state of the planet—opened the UN's Rio+20 summit on sustainable development. The summit was the largest UN meeting to date.
A 3-minute journey through the last 250 years of our history, from the start of the Industrial Revolution to the Rio+20 Summit. The film charts the growth of humanity into a global force on an equivalent scale to major geological processes."
The Anthropocene, Represented Algorithmically
I = P x A x T
"I= Human Impact
P= Population (Sheer number of people on the planet)
A= Affluence (The higher the global GDP, the more appetite we develop for natural resources)
T= Technology (New ways to exploit resources and consume goods and services)"

Terra Nova: Sinfonia Antarctica
"DJ Spooky/Paul D. Miller’s next large scale multimedia performance work will be an acoustic portrait of a rapidly changing continent. Sinfonia Antarctica transforms Miller’s first person encounter with the harsh, dynamic landscape into multimedia portraits with music composed from the different geographies that make up the land mass. Miller’s field recordings from a portable studio, set up to capture the acoustic qualities of Antarctic ice forms, reflect a changing and even vanishing environment under duress. Coupled with historic, scientific, and geographical visual material, Terra Nova: Sinfonia Antarctica is a seventy minute performance, creating a unique and powerful moment around man’s relationship with nature."
