Welcome.
You are now a seasponge.
You have no central nervous system.
You have no stress.
You are enlightened in all the ways Buddhism prescribes.
But that is trivial, because as a seasponge you are beyond enlightenment.
You are just there, you filter seawater, you grow, release spermatozoids and that’s about it.
It is amazing and you can’t even be bothered.
Those 90% of undiscovered sea creatures, never before seen by the human eye just pass under your nose.
But then a robot arrives and tells you he is there to take all the manganese nodules away.
DEEPSEA BED MINING STRIKES.
All sea life is doomed.
But far away, on land, a single, somewhat naive artist sets out to do what no one thinks of:
He’s making a backup of all undiscovered sea life.
An absurd endeavour, because there are still more then 13 million creatures out there to be discovered.
But he thinks it is like Pokémon in God mode and he likes a challenge.
Gotta backup them all.
This is FOREST OF THE WEIRD.
