Beschreibung

We are now in the future. Machines and technology have overtaken reading, books, and imagination. Reason has been replaced by artificial intelligence, as humanity becomes more obsessed with consumption over creation. Automation has left a pale substitute of what used to be. Unique sensations of smell and sight are lost as fruits are no longer as tasty, and stars are no longer as bright. The sky is bleak from the pollution of so-called development, destroying everything good and natural.

This story serves as a warning of what might happen to our future if we don’t reclaim our humanity.
This is a wake-up call: we must remind ourselves of what it means to be curious again – to be human again, and restore color to our world before it is too late.
