What is Contemplate and why you should read it.
The biggest volcano eruption ever recorded, in 1815 at Mount Tambora, not only led to snow in New York during the summer of that year, but also to the invention of the bicycle.

Fast and furious as the previous ones did. Or even faster.

What will humans become living an ever more comfortable, ever more efficient, and ever more predictable life? Or should we rather ask what remains?
