Robotics, Decadence, Machine, Collapse
It’s 2029 and the Irvine Spectrum is the last remaining hold out of decadence for the prestigious and rich of South Orange County. The collapse of capitalism has been brought on by a rapid acceleration of robotics and machines, the dawn of a new economy begins to emerge.
With the innovative Space for a Cause program brought on by two brilliant graduate students, the robots began understanding human suffering and all of the need that exists today. The robots had a choice, and they chose to idealize what makes humans human; empathy and the ability to connect on a visceral level.
As the world outside of the spectrum grows dark and gloomy, the transformation to a new world begins as the robots show humans new ways of seeing the world that challenges their assumptions and understanding of the world as they know it.
