From the Infinite Cosmos to a Farm in the Fields of France
Taylor Brown-Evans is a writer, illustrator, and cartoonist. He teaches courses on creative writing and graphic novels at UBC, and he has a spicy pepper hotness rating on ratemyprofessors.com.
In this story, Taylor shares his fears and struggles with the universal feeling of loneliness. He frames his story through the loneliest cartoon in the history of humanity which you can see below. Taylor show us that while loneliness is something we all feel, sometimes it’s good to stick it out on your own and face the fact that we may be alone in this universe.
The comic Taylor talks about is by Alan Dunn and was published in the New Yorker in 1950. It portrays a hypothesis for why so many trash cans were disappearing from the city of New York that year: aliens. This comic spurred scientists into thinking about what is now called the Fermi Paradox. In short the question is this: if the universe is so ridiculously large, there should be a high probability that extraterrestrial life exists. So if that’s the case, where are all the aliens?
