Greetings Adventurer,
I hope this communication finds you nominal on this water-wet November 24, 2167.
We are in Canada, and we have begun our Expedition into the past, back to the year 2016. We will mimic pre-simulation reality, when humanoids would physically gather* in a space to enjoy artistic proceedings and to socialise**.
On Saturday, 26 November, we go deeper into our exploration with The Symposium. We will merge the realities of those proficient at science, environmental preservation, and art, and they will present how their realities have altered due to the atmospheric alteration***.
Space is available for those adventurous enough to come to the live happening in Vancouver. However, with full knowledge that gathering with other humanoids can be an intense experience (and geographically difficult), we offer a live online stream, where The Symposium proceedings can be viewed from Facebook Live on November 26 from 4pm - 7.30pm (12 midnight - 3.30am Irish time)
We look forward to welcoming you on this leg of our Expedition journey.
*21st century term indicating to "come together" or "congregate"
**21st century term indicating "interact" or "converse"
***In 2016, this term was also deemed "climate change"
