[This](http://btr.michaelkwan.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/evolutiongonewrong.jpg) image can be found in various places around the internet, usually with the caption “somewhere, something went horribly wrong”. The idea is that human society has screwed with evolution, and instead of walking proudly upright, us humans now all find ourselves hunched over computers all the time. I’m considering using this image in a publication, and would like to find out who the creator is in order to obtain the necessary permits, but I’m so far out of luck. Does anyone have a clue who made it?
