Description
Also known as the 8000 block. Well this is just an area in a hyper city called sector 8000. There's about 12000 to 25000 sectors in any hyper city. From the view of the spectator of the image, you are approximately 100 stories from geo surface level, and about 200 stories from the lowest floor in the entire city (meaning the city also exists about 100 stories below ground). You'll notice bridges connecting different STALKS (or buildings). These are places people can walk out on to and do some shopping, socializing, site seeing, and have public performances. Some bridges even allow for different kinds of sports. Most structures like the one seen in this image that people live in are assembled atom by atom from space with what's known as an HEPD particle beam. GIGANTIC satelites floating in space point a beam into the city and the building seems to grow magically out of the ground like upsidedown icicles. Hundreds of thousands of little robots smooth the structure down until it's shiny and then the smaller structures can be assembled in the metal shell. The frame work of these buildings is similar to animal bone. They are super light and super strong but it's all entirely one piece of metal as if struck from one giant dye cast.

In any one building there can be between 3000 to 40,000 people. Although the average size of the building can be nearly 3 or 4 kilometers in height, each individual person takes up hundreds of cubic meters. A single man could have a flat that would seem like a mind boggeling massive space (as opposed to what bruce willis' character lived in in the movie the fifth element). Well if technology is so advanced, why would anyone need so much space you might ask. Simply put, the quality of life for the average individual is comperative to that of the most powerful and richest sultan in india today, even greater perhaps. Space is simply a luxury to be used up however the individual who owns it sees fit. Since all food crops are grown in space stations for humans, cities and populations can grow to absolutely immense sizes and still fit in a relatively area on the surface of the planet so as not to disturb the natural environment. Some cities are even built a few kilometers off shore for minimal interruption of forest growth.

The cities are protected from earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, wind speeds exceeding 100 kilometers an hour, lighting, floods, typhoons, monsoons, tidal waves, and even asteroid impacts. The entire city is protected by a bubble of nano tech buffer fields surrounding the city but it's completely transparent. There are many fascades to human life that are completely absorbed into technology, but for the most part, it's there for entertainment, leisure, relaxation, and education.

Initially, the inception of a super realistic virtual reality device/technology was seen as a dangerous new kind of addicitive activity that would turn humanity into just a pile of frail and small bodies whos brains are jacked into a fake utopia or heaven experiencing constant bliss, being fed nurtrients introveinously and waste product sucked out. Something akin to the world depicted in the movie "the matrix". People feared that a technology like VR would lead to a society where people never do anything except play in VR and reproduce, humanity's entire life from birth is spent in VR until they die of old age. But that is not what happened.

The Virtual Reality revolution would come a lot sooner than you think. It's actually already been here. In fact, it's been here for as long as humans existed. I'm talking about the phenominon in sleep where a person realizes they are dreaming, commonly known as lucid dreaming. Effectively, if a person were to moderate the activity in their dreams, they could prolong the benefits and pleasures of lucid dreaming for a life time if given the proper training and guidance.

When internal neurological devices were invented that could allow the host user to plug into a computer generated construct of reality, it never caught on. Techno VR in human society and culture was but a flash in the pan. So people still go out. People still date face to face, and have sex face to face (or face to back of head depending on what you're in to), people still eat real food for sustainance, people still do things with their bare hands. But the thing is, a city has become nothing more than a habitat for humans to have babies, create art, have sex, and have lots of limitless fun. There's nothing to do but enjoy yourself in these places. The crazy thing is, the human population isn't growing nearly as fast as people expected. Human progress is taking it slow since we've achieved all we could ever hope to achieve. The only thing really left to do is be born, cash in really fat social security check, begin working some job at age 19, then retire at 30 (or 35 if you plan to do so hefty spending) then reap the finer things in life (which for the most part are dirt cheap) until the ripe old age of 180 and finally die or perhaps combine your brain with the brains of everyone in your family and live in the body of the perfect physical form and exlplore distant stars in an intergalactic cruiser but there's some restrictions and circumstances tied into that whole option which can get pretty complicated with the government.
