Yes, and no. If we assume that our own experience with cultures possessing greater technology is indicative of how any space-faring culture we meet will also act, then we're supremely fucked because of the Conservatives of the world holding back technology and social growth that would lead to the discovery of sciences and technologies we could us to protect ourselves. Right now, we're probably the intergalactic equivalent of the Sentinelese. #ZooHypothesis #DarkForest
In this image, a seductive witch stands tall in a dark forest, exuding a sense of power and confidence. The witch is wearing a dark green hat, which adds a touch of mystery to her appearance. Her black dress has a low neckline and long sleeves, adding a touch of elegance and sexiness.

I think I could apply the Dark Forest Theory as to why we don't run into other alien civilizations to my 2023 philosophy about what's the safest practice for living my life here on earth, now. Call me crazy.
I mean, I'm down here dealing with my own chains of suspicion and technological explosions...

The #darkforest of the #humanmind is vast, complex, and difficult to navigate, with twists, turns, and hidden dangers. It's a source of creativity and anxiety, where fascinating and terrifying creatures lurk. #Labyrinth #SelfDiscovery #PersonalGrowth #JourneyOfDiscovery

The 'dark forest' theory to the Fermi Paradox is rooted in the same flawed paranoia soil of 'it's us vs them' which sprouts fascism and authoritarianism.
Take a look at nature, its far far far more common for mutual cooperation than inter-species genocides

Arbeit am #Fotobuch #Projekt #Dunkelwald
Wir sehen oft den #Wald vor lauter Bäumen nicht. In diesem Projekt geht es um unsere kulturbedingte #Wahrnehmung von Wald in seinen dunklen Aspekten. Düster-romantisch, verwunschen, schauerlich.
Ich nutze Tonwertumkehrungen (Negativ) und -manipulationen, um Assoziationen zu Märchenillustrationen und alten Stichen zu schaffen.
Diese irritierenden Effekte die Formen, Strukturen und Texturen des Waldes, die der "normale", hastige Blick schnell übersieht.

Work on the #Photobook #Project #Darkforest
We often do not see the #forest for the trees.
This project is about our culturally conditioned #Perceptionof forest in its dark aspects, gothic, enchanted, eerie.
I use tonal inversions (negatives) and manipulations to create associations with fairy tale illustrations and old engravings.
These irritating effects emphasize the shapes, structures and textures of the forest that the "normal", hurried gaze makes us overlook.

I loved how the nanomaterials research seemed only thematic but turned out to be a huge part of the plot. The panama canal ambush had my heart pounding the entire time. I can't wait to start reading #DarkForest
I just finished reading #ThreeBodyProblem for the first time and the bit where Da Shi shows them the swarm of locusts invigorated me in a way I can hardly describe.

I learned of this term for the first time today -- The 'Dead-Internet Theory'.
Might have been a conspiracy before but soon it may be closer to reality.
I don't think I'm as afraid of us losing our human spaces but I do think they will unfortunately have to go more 'underground', as they already have for a lot of us.
