Post industrial mankind's fascination with material progress has, since the industrial revolution, played the dominant role in the direction taken by Westernised societies. 'The machine', along with the material and financial wealth necessary to own and operate it, has steadily subsumed more human centred values that preceded its dominance.
Fascination with so called modern technologies of the present day, represent an extension of the general obeysance paid to the rising totem of technological 'advances' over the past three centuries. It has led to the point where such innovations no longer claim to be about 'lessening the work load' , but almost openly proffer the claim of being convenience drugs without which much of Westernised society could barely function at all.
Controversially, each step along the way to this point of abstraction has involved leaps of imaginative thinking that draw upon universal energetic principles. The genius of Nicholas Tesla being an example of such. Yet, simultaneously, each 'advance' has brought with it a swathe of deficits to the health and welfare of the natural environment, man, animals and insects; threatening to undermine the very fabric of planetary sustainability.
