"Terminal" evokes the idea of impending end, like in "terminal illness", but it also brings to mind the concept of connecting to another place, another dimension, such as in "bus terminal", for example. By focusing, on one hand, on the idea of death espoused by a certain vision of humanity, patently present on the massive destruction of nature, we will also try to find the "terminal" that connects to the future, attempting to catch a glimpse of a brand-new cosmogony.
If we take the Theatre of the World, tearing down its walls and declaring it to be in a state-of-siege, what will we find? What are the true consequences of losing biodiversity and the ever rising problem of water scarcity? Are there any words that can answer?
