Checkpoint & Chance
A personal project considering the chance moments encountered along humanity’s timeline and how we arrived at ‘today’. Events and data points are presented as unique sets of elements which represent checkpoints along seven timelines: the universe, space, the solar system, earth, life, plants and humanity. Multiple elements can be grouped into personally curated timelines representing ideas important to the viewer, or displayed in their historically accurate formation.
The human and natural timelines are constantly evolving by taking into account current day events. The human timeline can also be extended through the use of blank ‘personal checkpoint’ elements which allow the addition of unique life events. The aim is to inspire us to consider our place in history.
