'Hyperextension'

Resident at the NIROX Foundation, Cradle  of Humankind, Sean Blem has engaged in continued research  and documentation of early areas of human habitation in Southern  Africa. His interpretation of 'cartographic' connections explores the link between specific archaeological sites in the Cradle of Humankind, to more recent  Iron Age and contemporary  sites of human habitation.

In addition, he has extended his cartographic exploration into another  similarly unknown area of our universe, the human brain: In particular the  prefrontal and frontal cortices. This area of the brain is what  differentiates us from other primates, and has enabled the development of  protective shelter, leading to architecture, speech, language and the  development of artistic interpretation, music and culture. As the parameters of thought expanded, our frontal cortices took us  to the moon and beyond. Often to great  interdisciplinary benefit, science and the arts have been linked, as demonstrated by the works of Leonardo Da Vinci and Goethe.

As research materials are investigated using archaeological, neurological and earth observation techniques, Sean Blem believes unexpected  and unknown paths of further  exploration will become evident,  cohesively enhancing our understanding and knowledge in the future.
