Vaster Than Empires II: The Eternal and the Ephemeral

In Year 2, we explored the theme “The Eternal and the Ephemeral” in Rome, Italy. In the Eternal City, we steeped ourselves in the ancient past through art and architecture to share collective moments that were sweet but fleeting. We toured Palatine Hill, the catacombs, and the Basilica di San Clemente. Future Humans also collaborated with the American Academy in Rome on a Salon, “Alien Translations,” and hosted talks and lectures around Rome and at the Castle Ruspoli in Vetralla, Italy. 

We continue to collect writers’ stories, screenplays, and other creative works for publication and production.
