Chronoscope” by Sara Bonaventura for the #MNMF2018

Sara brings “Chronoscope” to the #MNMF2018. It is a 3 minutes video inspired by the sentence: “There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it’s going to be a butterfly”. by R. Buckminster Fuller. The main trigger for the idea was the concept behind the degrowth, focusing on sustainability. Chronoscope is apparently an entropic way to see the past, but what if the past tells us more about the future than we usually think?
