The Palette of Being

20'000 colored particles in shades of purple and green form concentric circles.
Crozat, B. (2022). "Pollock particles VIII" [Creative coding].

'We are all connected' is literally true from a physical perspective.

Our hearts beat, carrying through our bodies iron created inside supernovae.

Our lungs breath air that was made by uncountable (cyano)bacterias through photosynthesis.

Our mind is made of neural pathways that are formed thanks to our amazingly diverse environment. Through our common human experiences, our brains share identical neurological patterns.

Theses experiences and interconnections in turn enable us to define our identities and shape what we call life - the palette of being.

'We are all connected' is a physical truth - that goes way beyond our perception of it.

Still not convinced? Watch this.
