What's it like once the Earth's surface is uninhabitable? Well if you ask Priya and Ilya, citizens of a newly constructed underwater society, it's pretty boring. That is, until their discovery in the basement of their school catches the eye of the base's omnipresent AI system. The Giant Pacific Octopus Maritime School is an ode to what we will have left behind once we retreat to the depths of the sea.
