zolladapt
Welcome to ZOLLADAPT, the island that produces happiness.
Zolladapt is an island with a factory, which is the beating heart of the island. The inhabitants of Zolladapt are always happy, it does not matter in which region they live, reality, utopia or distopia. Each of these 3 zones of the island produces happiness and happy people in their own specific way.
Everything in the happy-factory-island, Zolladapt, is being consumed; people, and their energy, the products created by the robot, and even the waste. It’s all being used, to ‘feed’ the factory or to make the inhabitants happy.
They need each other to survive, citizens have a duty towards the robot to stay alive, and vice versa. The robot is activated by the energy of human labor, day and night, the energy of this factory creates various products. On the one hand there are the perfumes which comes through the chimneys in the sky, flowers and trees on the land, and lots of unnecessary products ready to be consumed in utopia.
On the other hand, the robot produces waist and garbage, which is released in distopia. The inhabitants of distopia can consume this garbage as food and gain more happiness by consummig the garbage.
The vibrant atmosphere of Zolladapt is further enhanced by picturesque flowerfields, untouched forests, belvederes and panoramic terraces, impressive monuments, garbage that is being consumed, chimneys perfuming the air and colouring the water, spacious parks and the wide ocean, all of this together, resulting in an active cultural life, bringing together the three groups of people in one happy island.
As you can read this island is like an ocean of happiness, wellworth a visit!
Come & discover Zolladapt!
History of Zolladapt (1 discovering land, 2 IR, 3 dead industrie 4 new life)
Almost 250 years ago, a man arrived to an island, it was a beautiful island, with undiscoverd nature, but it was lonely and deserted, in the middle of wide the ocean. The man was alone on the island, and after being there for a while, discovering all the beauty it has to offer, he became lonely and decided to create a very huge robot. He called the island Zolladapt, because they created a duty towards eachother, from now on, they would have to keep eachother alive, this was the beginning of a new era.
Once the robot was activated, the island started to live and give life, more and more. Every day more people came to the island to see the robot in real live, and every day more and more people wanted to live here. The population kept growing and a real living factory-island was born.
The under-water-part of the robot was called Dystopia, a place where you can discover the new, great smell of pollution, creating lots of new colours and perspectives under the waterlevel, deep in the ocean. This region became also very famous for it’s pet, who lives under the water and is just like the inhabtitants of Dystopia feeded with the waste and garbage produced by the robot. It’s really fun to play with him!
High in the sky the robot also created Utopia, an other paradise on the island. Everything there is nice and beautifull, the smoke of the chimneys produces a flower perfume, and makes everyone happy. These people have everything they need, and lots more, but who cares! As long as as they can consume they will be happy!
That’s how live in Zolladapt began, and how it’s still going, and how it will go for ever. The Zolladapters will live long and happily after after.
Personal reviews
1// I’m Jeanne, i’m 87 years old and i live in Dystopia. I’ve always lived on the island, i love it! It is so green, and there are so many factories, i can work all the time, and that makes me happy. When i’m not working, i go to my house under the sea, it so beautiful there, the smoke gives so much colours to the water, and sometimes i play with Ferro, our pet, he’s is so nice to play with! i like my live here, I never want to leave this place, not even for all the money in Broke!
2// hi my name is Hanz, i’m almost 100 (in a few months), I come from Germany, but moved to Zolladapt. I used to work and still do work in the robot, for over 50 years now. It gives me a great feeling, knowing that i am part of keeping our robot alive. I love Dystopia, and i’m happy the robot creates such nice garbage. I’m happy I moved here, and I never want to leave the island anymore, maybe in a few years i would like to change the envirnment a bit, but never go away from the robot, so maybe i can move to reality.. anyway, i’m very happy now, and i will see what the future brings!
3// I’m Kimberly, I am amost 16 years old now, which means i can almost start working in the factory, i’m so excited for my first day at work. I am very curious about what the robot looks like on the inside, but i’m even more motivated to be able to work and give my energy to the robot. But for now, i’m just happy to live on this beautiful island!
4// my name is Evi, i’m a visitor of Zolladapt, I just arrived on the island, and i am looking forward to visit the robot. I can feel a very atmosphere here on the island. I have just visited Dystopia, I can tell you this, I love the way the robot looks under te water and the polltion under water is beatuful. Seeing this made me even more excited to go inside. Let’s go and see!
What about you?
