Short Humanity

Com base na arqueogenética, cientistas como Johannes Krause traçaram a rota das ondas migratórias que povoaram o mundo, lançando luz sobre aspectos do passado que até então permaneciam um mistério. Krause e o jornalista Thomas Trappe reescrevem um dos capítulos mais interessantes desse percurso: o povoamento da Europa. Além disso, detalham a cultura dos povos que viviam lá no período pré-histórico, formados por hábeis artesãos, por pessoas que enterravam os mortos com joias de ouro muito antes dos faraós do Egito e por caçadores de grandes animais que pereceram na Era do Gelo.

Arty Intel, an artificially intelligent robot, is created with the purpose to care for a human child named Stanley. He uses this task to study the human species and form his personal psychoanalysis of the human race. Watching and learning from Stanley’s life, Arty observes the issues of mental health, education, corporate culture, and family life. Stanley, being the primary source of Arty’s research, battles the typical emotions humans experience in different stages of life as he grows from boy to man.
