Led by experts in history, anthropology, philosophy, and more, the British-American non-profit organization known as The Time Capsule Project [https://www.thetimecapsuleproject.org/] has launched a global initiative to capture and preserve contemporary human experiences for future generations. This project will establish ten massive time capsules around the world, filled with personal stories, artworks, and digital legacies, to be unveiled 100 years from now.
