The photos of Peter DiCampo (click here for Peter’s website), an American freelance photographer and former members of the Peace Corps who volunteered in the village of Voggu in rural Ghana, highlighted for me the effect of artificial life on human experience. His photo essay, Full Frame: Life without lights, at Global Post, an online American newspaper included beautiful images of life by flashlight, candle and gaslight, capturing the atmosphere in this part of Ghana without electricity. This essay explores some of the research on the way that artificial life can impact human experience and our nervous system.
