Survival Guidebook in 2035

A survival guide for 2035 that doesn't rely on digital technology — what you'd need when the AI, the network, and the lights go out.

In 2035

In a world increasingly powered by AI and digital systems, we rarely question what happens when those systems fail. During disasters, electricity and networks disappear first, leaving people without access to critical information.

This project explores a simple but resilient idea: a survival guide for 2035 that doesn’t rely on digital technology.
