The Rise of the New Individual.

"You're beginning to see the telescoping nature of the evolutionary paradigm"
- from the film, Waking Life

Human evolution and development has quite amazingly been becoming swift and rapid. Tracing the trajectory, the process signals the "evolution of human as a biological organism, and then the development of its interaction within the environment."

Interestingly, the biological evolution of man took an extensively long and intricate process. It started outright from the formation of life, from the configuration of the most minute, single-celled organism, which took several billion years. By way of a very complicated process that simple manifestation of life evolved into many complex life forms that include man. The evolution of mankind itself involved several million years from the hominid to the Neanderthal to the Cro-magnon to the Homo Sapien.

Next, when man began to realize his inherent capacities, his anthropological development so started. Man’s innate nature to connect and interact with one another catapulted into the formation of the family and of the society. It took thousand-hundred years for this process alone, equally manifested through and by the agricultural, scientific and industrial revolutions.

What transpired for the last several billion, million and hundred-thousand years is a very protracted time-scale of human development. Quite ostensibly, it manifests that such development is centered on the collectivity - a passive, external process where man is subject to the collective impulse.

By way of looking human evolution and development as it happens now, the focal point of the trajectory has already shifted. The process is as well telescoped, meaning it is magnified seven, eight times. The pace is becoming faster and central to it is the amplification of man as an individual. “It now becomes an individual-centered process emanating from his ultimate needs and desires.”

Now, under the new evolutionary paradigm the new individual is to rise. The product is neo-human with “a new individuality, new consciousness.” It pods on the accumulated intelligence of the past and on the abilities discovered critically discerning each into a new level of understanding, grasping what seems to be relevant, and incorporating it into a new and refined visions.
