Hello.  

I am synthetic life form “Yoko K.,” assembled in the US with components made in Japan.  I am designed to assume the role of an “electronic musician.”  

We, Aliens of Extraordinary Abilities, are sent to Halcyon House to plant magical thinking in people through the use of pre-22nd century nostalgia Mars pop music. 

Our mission is to make people imagine a more beautiful, optimistic future, covertly altering the course of human history to prevent its eventual self-destruction.

Join us in the 22nd century where, hypothetically, everything worked out just fine.  

Dress with your 22nd century flare, to party and dance - or just come as you are, to relax and recharge.  All ages, everyone is welcome.
