Here’s my half-baked proposal — that all 8 billion of us start writing down our thoughts and experiences, from our deepest, darkest secrets to our most inane, frivolous musings, and use time-lock cryptography to send these fragments of our lived experiences into the future. That all of humanity begins fostering a culture that promotes the continual recording and eventual transmission of collective human wisdom for posterity’s sake. That we recognize the inherent uniqueness and value of both each person’s lived human experience as well as the importance of recording the collective human experience, as an idea and as a lived practice.
