Synopsis

OMNINET is a charting of EDUCATION as humans have always known and needed it, beyond schools, beyond teachers, beyond grades and beyond books. The deep-bellied ship, the printing press, the Catholic Church, the typewriter, the Suez Canal, and Morse code are all education instruments and technologies – the very ones which resulted in our schools and universities of today, which we have only known for a comparatively brief time. Examining Earth’s schools alongside its mobile phones, its libraries with its naval trade routes, OMNINET deals with all of humanity’s information as one whole system, which we see is rapidly changing. We are now experiencing a change as significant as the advent of writing, as we transition to a new kind of record beyond the internet, a coalescing of technologies and social structures five thousand years in the making: the OMNINET. What changes will this new technology cause to information, in turn cause to work, and in turn cause to the very idea of ‘education’?
