This programme celebrates the unsung heroes, radical ideas and extraordinary innovations that have changed the modern world. Whether this be the first sewer system in America, the introduction of chlorine into water or the beginning of standardised time zones, Steven opens our eyes to discoveries that have impacted mankind; most of which we now take for granted like CLEAN or SOUND. The production takes a different approach to storytelling that does not focus on a single idea, invention or moment but rather follows the flow of ideas. Each episode takes an everyday object or concept and delves into the complex history of how this thing or idea went from being a marvel to becoming mundane. How We Got To Now is also a multiplatform production with Steven releasing a book and a website about modern day innovations.
