Architects for salvation

about

Exodus is a musical story. The story each track illustrates is in the lyrics.

lyrics

In the year 2347, the world was in the grip of despair and resignation as humanity faced its inevitable doom. With just one year left before impact, the scientists scrambled to conceive and engineer space Arks that had never been done before. Humanity's only hope for survival.

Politicians were tasked with selecting the 10,000 people who would be saved, and a worldwide lottery was implemented to facilitate this somber endeavor. Among the chosen few were Jade and Gray, who bid farewell to their loved ones as they prepared to leave for the Exodus Project site.

Meanwhile, the world was plunged into chaos as multiple catastrophic events occurred due to the shifting orbit of the moon. Despite the progress in the construction of the Arks, mishaps, accidents, delays and suspected sabotage plagued the project, it seemed uncertain whether they would be able to launch in time.

As the impending deadline drew near, the scientists struggled to find suitable planets for the survivors to inhabit. The closer the collision, the more people gave up hope and resigned themselves to their fate.

Tsunamis, earthquakes, turbulent weather wracked the earth, killing millions, while the rest of the world collapsed into chaos and riots. Against insurmountable odds, the scientists, engineers and laborers working on the exodus project pressed on, determined to make it a reality.

Finally, with just weeks left before impact, the project was completed. However, there was no time for pre-flight tests. The Arks had to be launched immediately. Jade and Gray were forced to embark on separate Arks, uncertain if they would ever see each other again.

Sometimes, I shoot it.
Sometime, music is in my head.
Sometimes, I record it. ... more
