Flying Machines

An article on space.com by Leonard David discusses a book called ‘Identified flying objects: A Multidisciplinary Scientific Approach to the UFO Phenomenon’ written by Michael Masters, professor of biological anthropology. “Masters thinks that – given the accelerating pace of change in science, technology, and engineering –  it is likely that humans of the distant future could develop the knowledge and machinery necessary to return to the past. The objective of the book, Masters said, is to spur a new and more informed discussion among believers and skeptics alike.”

I love to think about these ideas so I imagined this artwork based around a large statue of Leonardo Da Vinci. Evolved human beings from another dimension are fascinated by the evolution of flying machines and by Leonardo Da Vinci’s creations. Traveling through time to witness key moments that shaped their/our evolution.
