By 2035, Austin had undergone a radical transformation. In place of sleek skyscrapers and luxury condos, the skyline was now dominated by towering structures made entirely from discarded materials. This shift was driven by a commitment to the philosophy of Trash Magic, a movement that embraced a sustainable future by giving new life to every piece of waste.

A key player in this transformation was the Geometron Hypercube—a simple four-inch cardboard cube that became a symbol of Austin's identity and a testament to the power of sustainable innovation.

In this new Austin, everyone participated in building the city. Children, on their way to school, stopped to add a hypercube to walls of growing art installations. Office workers spent lunch breaks assembling hypercube planters, contributing to the city’s expanding urban gardens. Even restaurants hosted workshops where community members built compost bins and worm farms from hypercubes, making waste management a collective effort.

At the heart of the city stood one of the most iconic structures: a colossal cardboard tower used to print Geometron icons, serving as a beacon for the Trash Magic movement.

The hypercube was not just functional—it was also a medium for artistic and creative expression. Musicians transformed hypercube structures into unique percussion instruments, while artists organized collaborative installations that were visible across the city. Local businesses displayed their products in hypercube cases, and homes across Austin boasted lamps with soft, diffused light filtering through hypercube shades.

This creative reuse of waste materials extended into the tech realm as well. Demand grew for motion sensor control pyramids and motor fixtures, all built using the hypercube’s geometrical language.

Austin had become a city intertwined with Trash Magic and hypercube technology. The residents could no longer imagine a time before this sustainable shift. The city’s transformation was not just about materials but also about community, innovation, and showing the world how a humble cardboard cube could lead to an extraordinary future.
