Description

The Year is 2045. Welcome to your new Neural Neighborhood®. Eternal Cloud asks it's users ‘Did your actions in 2016 make you a desirable candidate for our new digital society in 2045?’

The impetus for the project stemmed from reading of Jaron Lanier, Elon Musk, Ray Kurzweil, and Neal Stephenson.

Eternal Cloud questions the humanity of algorithms, takes place in a post-global-warming digital world, and proposes new paradigms for the internet.
