Totemic Systems

Welcome to the Neo-Neolithic period (2040-2150 CE), where you are invited to explore an apocalyptic,post-climate-change world, in a natural history exhibit setting. Hosted by the BeneCorpo collective, participants are given the opportunity to experience the near future, first-hand.  Dress up in the costumes of a future generation’s elder leaders, warriors and sentinels, and get your portrait taken in a unique photo booth or, hang out in a makeshift nomadic outpost and learn survival tips. Inhabit your adopted character in the New Settlement while you participate in the initiation rites and life lessons of Benediction Corporation's Arcologies. Discover this new reality based on barter and nomadic neo-tribalism, including the scavenging and re-use of detritus from our now lost modern civilization.
