Interdeterminism

Geography, genetics,
And ecology matter,
But nothing is destiny.

Least-cost path algorithms
Minimizing differences
Between societies in

Regimes of temperature
And aridity will yield
The barrier density

To cultural transmission
In terms of ecology
But not a definitive

Answer to whether the wheels
Of history spin faster
In one place than another.

And now there is the aether
Of the info atmosphere
With rare metal barriers.

Ecology, genetics,
And technology matter,
But destiny is nothing.
