Noosphere

NOOSPHERE from Tatiana Plakhova on Vimeo.



With the term "noosphere" being compared to the world and the monuments that stand within it, it seems that we are lost in a sphere of what limits us within certain boundaries, eager to join another and another. This video is a map of how a city, a country, a continent, is united within this noosphere but also, in my perspective, be defined as the aforementioned-in-class topic of life and the symmetry behind it. It is this sphere that gives not only definition, but a reason of how everything is purposefully placed in its location through the disguised eye of symmetry. Yet, this sphere of symmetry can mean more than what it intends to. Maybe it is in fact the idea that humans can be somewhat symmetrical with their culture, their knowledge, or even perhaps, their behavior and mindset. Ideologically, there is the established understanding that everyone is different and unique in their own way, but maybe the sphere sets a comparison within all of those within its boundaries, whether it is one trait or a thousand. Who knows. Maybe in some undisclosed region of the world, there exists an individual who may be in fact exactly like you but placed in another body just to preserve that bit of difference. Or maybe, it is a God-divine gift that was given to us for the sole purpose to amaze, astonish, or inspire. Guess the expression "Me and you are not so different after all" has in fact value in its meaning.
