Future Fossils: Ashes Remain explores the paradox of legacy — what endures and what fades. Though weightless, ashes persist. Over time, they merge with history, becoming the fossils of tomorrow.
Fossils are more than remnants of the past—they are proof of existence, preserved through time. They tell the story of what once lived, evolved, and left its mark on the world. Even after life fades, ashes remain—a silent testament to what was.
Today, we are unconsciously creating fossils of our own. Every idea, innovation, and decision leaves an imprint that will shape how future generations remember us. Some will become legacies of progress, while others may stand as reminders of forgotten paths. “We are living in the past of future generations.” — Richard Feynman
Just as past civilizations left behind monuments, manuscripts, and scars of conflict, we are leaving behind the building blocks of this era — code, data, systems, and beliefs. Our choices, both visionary and destructive, will be studied and interpreted by those who come after us
Understanding how our ideas, actions, and innovations become the footprints we leave behind for future generations.
Recognizing our duty to make conscious choices in science, society, and sustainability before they turn into irreversible consequences.
Exploring how reflection and awareness can turn today’s ashes into tomorrow’s wisdom and progress.
