According to the 6th century Greek philosopher Anaximander 'apeiron' is a state of primal chaos. It is the limitless, undefinable everything from which all is created and the essential form back to which all will ultimately return.
Apeiron constantly and infinitely creates the building blocks of everything, including all states of opposition such as heat and cold, dry and wet, only to then destroy and remake it all anew in a boundless, eternal cycle.
It seems that humanity in the 21st century is living in a type of apeiron with our social, political, technological and economic structures. One crisis is seemingly resolved only to be replaced with another.
Alleged enemies become friends, only to return as enemies again. Technology creates solutions, but the unintended consequences of its application create a new set of problems to be surmounted. We seem to be living in a permanent state of uncertainty and flux.
This creates a type of undefinable, constant anxiety. Nothing is certain and the cycle of creation and destruction of threats, fears and challenges remorselessly continues. We live in a state of perpetual confusion, the ebb and flow of humanity's own apeiron.
