Philosopher Koert van Mensvoort shares his insights into humanity's ever-evolving relationship with nature, how integrating technology and biology can support ecology, and the possibility of becoming an interplanetary species.

Koert van Mensvoort is an artist and philosopher best known for his work on the philosophical concept of Next Nature, which revolves around the idea that our technological environment has become so complex, omnipresent, and autonomous that it is best perceived as a nature of its own. He is the Director of the Next Nature Network. Koert aims to better understand our co-evolutionary relationship with technology and to help set a track towards a future that is rewarding for both humankind and the planet.
