When Jellyfish Rule The World
Amy Jackson, 2025, time-based media

​

The year is 2400

The remnants of humanity cling to the tops of submerged skyscrapers, mere spectators to a world drowned by their own hubris. Gone are the bustling cities, replaced by an eerie underwater metropolis where the only inhabitants are jellyfish – not the benign, drifting kind, but monstrous, intelligent creatures.
 

Evolved from the very beings that caused their watery exile, these "Jellicles" have inherited the worst of humanity's traits. They pulsate with prejudice, their bioluminescent bodies glowing with shades of bigotry. The once shimmering neon signs now display venomous slogans of racial superiority and hypercapitalist propaganda. Social justice movements have devolved into stinging rivalries, with different species vying for dominance in this dystopian coral reef.

This isn't just a cautionary tale; it's a grotesque reflection. The Jellicles, in their shimmering, translucent forms, embody the chilling truth: even underwater, even without hands, the cycle of greed, discrimination, and insatiable ambition repeats.

Dive deep into the Jellicle Apocalypse and confront the chilling truth.
Why did they fail to learn from our mistakes?
