This scene shows the beginning of the Paleolithic Era, and reveals that, by the usage of tools, man could stop being a victim of the world to become an active element, who has the power of action over nature.

This scene is symbolic because the first ape realized that his tribe could defeat another by using weapons. The first battles were fought with sticks and stones. The victorious ape threw the weapon in the air and it became a pen that landed on a space traveler’s lap. Hence, the pen is mightier than the sword because physicists used the pen to develop weapons of mass destruction. The pen also put us space. This scene is magnificent!

Well... On a personal level, I believe "higher education" is unfortunately looked up to instead of looking up to education (lectures, papers, articles, and other works... sometimes free material) that brings one's understanding or experience with concepts and ideas to a new level. I do acknowledge that a college or university curriculum forces students to engage in areas of study that might otherwise be overlooked, either out of lack of desire or out of pure accident. Also, primatology is more often overlooked by dudes, so it is a female dominated arena. I have not studied primatology or apes for any lengthy amount of time, but I do have access to technology (sometimes via touch), and I have been using plenty of material provided by graduate schools, undergraduate programs, and sometimes K12 schools to further my insatiable curiosity upon which all effective learning is based. I do admit that I do not have a graduate degree though. The naive, highly curious, mystical and enchanted nature of these apes I do not consider to be necessarily a negative personified trait, providing downward social comparison to juxtapose myself or others with. I do recommend watching the KZbin video with the title "Isolated tribe man meets modern tribe man for the first time - Original Footage full". It provides an excellent example of how a modernized human can communicate (in a respectful nature) to a tribe of people who aren't tainted with all of the ailments and distractions of modern technology. More specifically, that video I just mentioned has the tribe members reacting with great curiosity and wonder towards simple items like mirrors, audio recordings, and various objects. They then share their tools. And thanks for the comment on my comment... I consider it to be a well composed message, especially for the public arena of KZbin. [-Official KZbin Ph.D holder]

The fact that someone has captured this contrast in such a spectacular and breathtaking manner to me is... Truly astounding. To show THE moment in which we evolve as a species, that we can USE tools that will accelerate the evolution of human kind in film is a marvel. It is the tool that gave us the edge, to allow us to hunt more effectively, increase our survivability and expand as a species. It was the first step. I wish the next scene was part of this video too, as that shows the JUMP that we have made as a species. To have gone from bone smashing monkeys in the dirt to the creation of AI and space travel. This in hand with the masterful soundtrack proves to me to be something truly epic. Bravo, and thank you for this piece :)

To anyone who doesn't understand this scene: Basically, the two monkey tribes are competing for resources. One tribe comes into contact with this alien monolith (we can tell it's from an "alien" source because it's precisely cut). The monolith triggers the next step of evolution by enhancing their mental faculties, leading them to start using tools. Having learned to use the bones as tools, they defeat the rival tribe, gain resources, and continue to evolve. Fast forward many years, and there's us, having built space ships. In the latter half of the movie, the monolith appears again. This time, it grants sentience to the artificial intelligence HAL. It starts to disobey orders and makes questions for itself. Again, it's the alien monolith doing things to trigger the next step of evolution. In the end, the monolith triggers the astronaut, and near the end of the movie, we see the signature scene where he sees himself progressively getting older in a room from multiple camera angles. He becomes really old, and then sees himself as this new baby floating on the bed. Then there's a scene with a lot of lights flooding in. This scene is telling us that humankind has reached its next step in evolution - some transcendent form of sentient life - just as human beings progressed from the apes in the beginning of the movie.
