Earth 5000 depicts a near-future charity road race to benefit the fight against climate change. The artwork focuses on the few years when a popular idea attracts top celebrity endorsement and participation before widespread government involvement becomes inevitable. The artist was interested in the results of using pre-installed software on a popular computer (Mac), i.e., simple by design. The use of famous people, especially Beeple and Elon Musk, and cryptocurrency logos is a sly nod to other artists using the same for marketing reasons.
