Catherine Sarah Young
The Perceptionalist
Art. Science. Design. Play.
These days, no one leaves any establishment without wearing The Bubble, a climate controlled personal chamber that assures that climate change will not affect your daily lifestyle. While pumping you with cool filtered oxygen, The Bubble also comes with wireless communications to call your girlfriend and say that you are on your way, sensor capabilities that perceive the conditions of the environment around you, and wifi so you can check your Twitter feed while waiting. The Bubble. Coming soon to a mall near you.
