Hyperanthropos and Climate Change
From the cockpit of a 747, Christina Fredengren explains the meaning of hyperanthropos.
This video was filmed on location at Arlanda Airport, Stockholm, Sweden. Christina Fredengren is sitting in the cockpit of a Boeing 747. She is sitting in a small space, yet she wields a massive amount of power. This symbolizes humans in the Anthropocene – a time when human hubris has put the needs of some humans ahead of other humans and of other species. Christina explains how climate can be seen as a hyperobject – shaped by many actors around the world. She encourages a more inclusive humanity built on care between human and more than human generations.
