One planet · incompatible assumptions

Sky sovereignty meets hive continuity.

The two civilizations can reach comparable sophistication without sharing the same ideas about territory, personhood, architecture or acceptable risk.

  • Arthropod settlements favor protected biomass, buried logistics and living industrial systems.
  • Diplomacy has to bridge two very different definitions of an individual.
