FReedomfile(F R ) was formed in the spring of 2007, out of the collaborative efforts of a group of like-minded artists and designers to create a vehicle for their art and passion for collective music and beak away from the normal format. Drawing from the urban environment, Freedomfile developed a mix-blend of styles & skills accumulated from a free association of intuitive interests and peripheral influences.

Hegemony - is a concept that has been used to describe the existence of dominance of one social group over another.

First chapter

A few years ago, one of the great figures of contemporary biology, Ernst Mayr, published some reflections on the likelihood of success in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. He considered the prospect very low. His reason had to do with the adaptive value of what we call “ higher intelligence,” meaning the particular human form of intellectual organization, Mayr estimated the number of species since the origin of life at about fifty billion, only one of which “achieved the kind of intelligence needed to establish a civilization.’ it did so very recently, perhaps 100, 000 years ago. It is generally assumed that only one small breeding group survived, of which we are all descendants.


Mayr speculated that the human form of intellectual organization may not be favored by selection. The history of life on earth, he wrote, refutes the claim that “it is better to be smart than to be stupid, at least judging by biological success, beetles and bacteria for example, are vastly more successful than humans in terms of survival. He also made the rather somber observation that “ the average life expectancy of species is bout 100,000 years.” We are entering a period of human history that may provide an answer to the question of whether it is better to be smart than stupid. The most hopeful prospect is that the question will not be answered: if it receives a definite answer, that answer can only be that humans were kind of “ biological error” using their allotted 100, 000 years to destroy themselves and, in the process, much else. The species has surely developed the capacity to do just that and a hypothetical extraterrestrial observer might well conclude that humans have demonstrated that capacity throughout their history , dramatically in the past few hundred years with an assault on the environment that sustains life, on the diversity of more complex organisms, and with cold and calculated savagery, on each other as well.
