Using real scientific experiments as a jumping off point, Universe 92 is a comedy featuring three animal behaviorists, a giant rat in a hammock, and a Roomba.
Intent on finding the key to contentment in a chaotic world, three scientists in the throes of surveillance capitalism obsessively note the preferences of a giant surly rat who wants to do little more than brush his belly, jabber into a microphone, and complain about the smell of his armpits. Will the data-collecting scientists learn anything valuable to humanity while watching him? Will they be able to collect the information they need without tainting the experiment? Will the Roomba be effective at cleaning a rat’s habitat? All fine questions that might be answered in Universe 92.
