A Futuristic new world, depicting the implications of societies constant obsessions in continual rapid technological advancements and very little ties to the organic world ever since the sea level rise incident many years ago. A Researcher / designer fascinated with the ocean and the destruction it had caused the city, prepares for one of his scheduled routine dives. Ever since that day the underwater ecosystem has suffered and deteriorated. There were no longer any signs of fish or coral life within the region, due to the massive chemical imbalances and toxic additives added into the water as it flooded everything in its path. As he begins his routine analysis of the bare underwater landscape, a ghost-like transparent organism catches his eye. The only living thing around for miles. One of the few creatures able to survive in such extreme conditions, a ctenophore, a jellyfish like organism. Stunned at the discovery he would follow it further out into the depths where he encounters dozens more of the simple organism, they would become the focus of his research. In his process through cellular engineering he is able to advance technologies that manipulate DNA and cellular systems, giving rise to a field of synthetic biology. The cities’ architecture becomes a mutual symbiosis between artificial design and biological systems reprogrammed to effectively respond to its environment and efficiently gather and transform renewable resources to maintain homeostasis. The project questions if programming cellular functions should be embraced as viable solutions in environmental issues such as sea level rise.
