« The very sighting of rats signifies a country in decay. As news broke post-lockdown of an infestation of rats in Cologne that was preventing children from going to school, Davydtchenko used the skills from his extended time surviving off roadkill. He travelled to the impoverished German suburbs to offer the opportunity of a sustainable micro-society, deliverable through the consumption and commodification of the rats. » Petr D

I’m here in Cologne, to help with the environmental crisis. To promote a new alternative source of protein that is locally available in large quantities. I am working to transform the way rats are seen by society. They are a far greater source of protein than meat produced by the farming industry.
Deutschland - sterility, purity and order.
Deutschland - locomotive of the European economy.
Deutschland - symbol of the economic dawn of Europe.
Deutschland - archetype for financial innovation, discipline, army, police.
I have been catching, cooking and eating rats here for over a month now. They have been my sole source of protein and I feel well fed and healthy. As a matter of fact these little creatures are delicious in taste.

Conversion of RAT RACE100:

Converting rats into celestials.
Becoming the new Hydra of Capitalism.
Celestials are what lives inside the blockchain.
The cluster of rats - most corrupt, dirty symbol of wealth.
The most low is taken and converted into gold.
