The Shift

A predetermined reaction called for a in-depth study and ultimately reversal of the design process.

 

One is forced to analyse why a solution is more complex or even unattainable in contrast to the problem.  Predicting the response to constructive intent is volatile. Predicting the response to destructive intent, predestined.

 

_The shift 

 

Mindsets need to change. What effort, cause or movement have had an effect to date? We need to shift our minds away from the naivety of awareness and apply change. The world will only change once there’s NO alternative. In “_The shift” just that is applied, a change no one can ignore, a designed problem, a seemingly “natural” disaster. 

 

A gas will be emitted into earth’s atmosphere which makes smoke, air pollution and waste particles denser than the air we breathe. Pollution will no longer be just that haze in the skyline. It will sink to earth’s surface and affect us in ways unwanted. Meanwhile Shift buildings will be erected in every major city in the world where civilians can go to learn to live a pollution free life. That is what the world thinks the Shift buildings are created for.   But the buildings are in fact application facilities for the people interested to become citezens of a elite green conscious population to inhabit the underground paradise cities. As the world deteriorates and new means are not created the people will shift via the nodes (each shift building) to the underground cities and start afresh.

  

Then once either the world has come to an end or the underground has repopulated enough to influence the people above, they will surface.
