The Importance of Existence

Of all the humans to exist, one must necessarily be the last.


Billions of years after the fall of Earth, a lone being wanders the far-flung moons among one of the last harbor galaxies. All that remains of humanity's cosmic presence is a final set of transmissions cast out with no more intent than to fall upon the deafening expanse of a rifting universe. What could the transmissions hope to achieve? To what ends had humanity's efforts been for?


  • A half-maddened being flung into the void?
  • A human mind conscripted to push well beyond what was once considered human?

Countless beautiful destinies were undoubtedly forgone to articulate this solitary human to the far-distant end of life's story. Yet, we were the ones who dared to fasten ourselves to anything that would bear our souls so we could map our bare beings against scales unfathomed. What such thoughts did we allow to inundate the performances of our lives? And perhaps more importantly, in the desperate race against time, what paths went unchosen in the abstinence of existential immobilization? Either way, our questions into the importance of this existence would not go unanswered.

About the Author

Josh Penn-Pierson is a passionate explorer of indefinitism: indefinite survival, the indefinite quest for knowledge, the indefinite boundaries of what it means to be human, the indefinite expanse of time and space, and the indefinite meanings created through the unfolding procession of existence.
