Celebrating the fantastical. Let your imagination run wild.
The year XIVAT
The year was XIVAT, humanity sat at its absolute peak. Every square inch of the cosmos had been explored, and the world came to a unanimous conclusion that no other life form existed outside the earth. The dark void of space was a vast expanse of nothingess, filled with only rocks and gases. Many varying sources to unlimited, renewable energy were discovered. Global warming became as inconsequential as small pox, they eradicated world hunger as well as poverty, diseases, and suffering. No one ever had to lift a finger because the much superior and smarter Artificial intelligence handled all tasks in the most efficient and optimal way.

Resonance Ink
Amira stood before the mirror and admired her swirling gold tattoos. She wore a fitted, sleeveless, cropped tank top and short shorts. She tied her hair in a high pony, swiped on some lip gloss, and stepped out to meet her personal Golden Mask shuttle.

Utopian Grey. Content Warning.
Eager souls, mystics and revolutionaries, may propose to refashion the world in accordance with their dreams; but evil remains, and so long as it lurks in the secret places of the heart, utopia is only the shadow of a dream. — Nathaniel Hawthorne

Waking Dream
Lars woke to the sun streaming onto his face. For a while he simply lay in bed, his mattress conforming to his body like a hug, watching the light catch in the crystals of the chandelier above him. The ocean outside was the most vibrant blue. It was another beautiful day.

Neurodivergent Utopia. Runner-Up in Tomorrow’s Utopia Challenge.
Janice stabbed her spoon into the all-marshmallow cereal, trying not to scream. “Gooooooood-MORNING Neurotopia!!!! Another day in the most PERFECT world we could ever imagine!” the ADHD Channel blared. “Too loud? That’s okay! Flip to the Sensory Channel for a calmer start to your morning! The autism friendliness there allows for a much more organized structure that is less overstimulating! Are you just about to jump out of your skin? Feel like starting a thousand new projects?

The Harmony Protocol
In the year 2174, Earth was a planet without suffering. Hunger, disease, crime, and poverty were eradicated through a single achievement: the Harmony Protocol. A global neural network, designed by the technocratic think tank known as the Eudaimon Institute, the Protocol subtly interfaced with every human consciousness, smoothing impulses, aligning desires, and eradicating internal conflict. There were no wars because no one felt the need to fight. There was no greed, for satisfaction was engineered. Emotions were balanced, decisions optimized, and harmony achieved. The Protocol was not a cage but an orchestra, and humanity was its symphony.
