[00:01–00:03] Speaker: Judging by the millet you chewed up here, you understand neither. [00:03–00:05] Speaker: Even worse, you don't even understand yourself, [00:05–00:08] Speaker: and your doctrine on humanity is centuries out of date. [00:08–00:11] Speaker: You see, the future is very unevenly distributed across humanity. [00:11–00:13] Speaker: Our so-called modernity is an integral sum of anachronisms. [00:13–00:15] Speaker: The civilizational [00:15–00:18] Narrator: clocks within different social strata are either lagging or rushing ahead by entire millennia. [00:18–00:21] Narrator: While fiery sparks of futurism soar into the sky, [00:21–00:24] Narrator: somewhere deep beneath the silvery amalgam of modernity, [00:24–00:26] Narrator: there heavily stir tectonic plates of archaism, [00:26–00:28] Narrator: the roots of which descend straight into the Paleolithic. [00:28–00:30] Narrator: I've seen fields, Leo. [00:30–00:31] Speaker: Endless fields, [00:31–00:32] Speaker: entire institutions, [00:32–00:33] Speaker: filled with former humans, [00:33–00:35] Speaker: unequipped to comprehend the moral obsolescence of their own discipline. [00:35–00:38] Speaker: They live, and sometimes even live quite well, [00:38–00:41] Speaker: but their lives relate to modernity, just as the life of a Bushman digging in the ground with a stick. [00:41–00:45] Speaker: You are a former human, a representative of the Paleolithic. [00:45–00:49] Speaker 1: You vastly overestimate both your own complexity and the culture that spawned you. [00:49–00:52] Speaker 1: You brandish your digging stick menacingly, and seriously believe that your so-called [00:52–00:55] Speaker 1: academic art is something more than just a moribund custom [00:55–00:58] Speaker 1: of projecting probabilistic distributions learned by the visual cortex [00:58–01:00] Speaker 1: into a two-dimensional peephole. [01:00–01:02] Narrator: Glory to the great academic art! [01:02–01:06] Narrator: Glory to the dung ball, sculpted by the callous hands of hardworking dung beetles. [01:06–01:10] Narrator: A collection of cold-cause hunches, try again, try differentlys, and rules of thumb, [01:10–01:13] Narrator: carefully passed down from buck-broken teachers to equally punctured students. ## Uncertainties Whether 'pleiometric' is the intended word or a coined term/neologism.
