The Day of the Rats
A Dystopian photo manipulation series
The History Lesson:
‘’The Revolution of the rats’’ as known in history books; represented the first major collapse of modern society. The cyber-attack started with the hack of all the flying cars on Earth and then all the bank system was shut down. The events escaladed when the safeguard AI named Equinox refused to attack the people on the streets and put offline all the military weapons. Refusing to bypass Asimov’s first law of robotics; ‘’do not harm a human’’. The revolution became aggressive when the population started killing the elite and destroying government’s buildings. Many of the elite fled to Luna mining station where they will establish in time ‘’The Corporation’’. Afterwards Earth was reorganized into a new structure. Country’s borders were abolished and the planet was ruled now by a council of 9. A new financial structure was created and Earth was united under a new banner called ‘’The United Humans Alliance’’ or U.H.A.

DISTRICT 44 C
- BERLIN - 2179 -
The world's governments have controversially opted to implement status zones in Europe, U.S, and Asia. Districts where residents are moved according to their status or place of birth. As a result, District A is home to the elite, while Districts C, D, and E are reserved for those whom the system deems to be dangerous. Although this course of action has generated controversy, it is a fact of this era and will soon be adopted all over the world. Every human has a chip implanted in their brain, and droids patrol these districts. Individuals can be elevated to a higher district depending on their behavior. Never noticed a single upgrade... The sad truth is that it's really a system of dominance and submission for the helpless. While the wealthy populate District A, the residents of District C, D, or E exist solely for the purpose of killing one another, ensuring that only District A residents will inhabit the planet in the future. That is common knowledge, yet our mission is not yet done. Soon Their world will burn. In the end "The Rats Will Rise."

THE HACK
-T minus 5 minutes until the world cyberattack
From its beginnings this society was based on an illusion, the illusion of a ladder that you have to climb; to grind away while the game's overlords enjoy themselves. Meanwhile We; the rats, are living in the sewers of your construct. But thanks to your technology, we now have a key to dismantle the ladder. Your vulnerability comes from your arrogance. A rigged game will soon be exposed; the game of a ''faked society''. And it all begins with a simple car hack. The Rats Will Rise!
- 19:55-July 4th- 2132- New York City.
