It's designed to allow the violent elements of society to live in their own floating nation in which they are free without law to act out their whims. Many of the passengers would be inmates who choose banishment from their own nation. Many would be people from society who make the choice out of some idea of freedom from law. Many psychopaths who wish to be able to do to others as they wish. Other insane elements will be filled with joy at the thought of the many mutants, robotics, and dangerous labyrinths filled with mysteries and death. To these people, to live without law is the true measure of liberty.
But is such a dark dream possible? :?
Well, for starters it will need to be BIG. The rough example has it at over 5.5km long, 1km tall, and nearly that wide. It would be displacing many millions of tonnes of water, and require VAST amounts of material to construct. Using genetically modified bacteria, which will require significant sources of carbon, the hull will be a weaved single piece, as perfect as possible down, with a molecular structure that qualifies it as a "Super Carbon". This will ensure that the ship is as tough as it can possibly be while maintaining a light structure (allowing the hull in addition to be very thick). The real wonder of this method of construction is that in the course of wear and tear, the bacteria can repair the ship's hull.
The bacterial colonies will also provide large quantities of hydrogen to help with buoyancy. They could even in someway be used as a food source. However, most of the food will come from targeting specific species of fish (we have to maintain environmental standards) using many thousands of electric tentacles, which will transfer fish to the automated AI food dispensaries, which will make food freely available. It's not all fishfood though - special gardens will procure food, most of them isolated from the inmates.
Such automation will be achieved via sophistic AI, which can adapt to pressures while maintaining its primary objectives.
It will dredge the sea for sources of oil and other resources, with a series of more massive tentacles. It will respond to attack if need be, by intercontinental missile technology, as well as incorporating toxic elements as a method of attack.
It will also be able to send small drone ships out for scouting purposes. The ship can easily dump large quantities of material into the sea - a "landslide" capable of creating tsunami.
The ships propulsion will come from a vast series of turbine nacelles along the ship, as well as a special event hydrogen booster which produce enough thrust to stir things up a little. The enormous electrical requirements for the ships systems should come from an advanced fusion generator.
Anarchos Libertaria will contain many wonders to enrapture a warped mind. It will have 100 floors divided into 10 floors around a central plaza - of this there will be 10 levels. Many curious electronic ghosts, many demons, many mutated horrors will be available for maximum satisfaction, and the AI-bacteria system will constantly be able to rearrange and reorder the ship's workings. There will be many labyrinths filled with stakes, bombs, staircases to nowhere, chimps wearing diapers, all sorts of the wondrous, inexplicable things that fill our daily lives. There will be centrifuges of death and temples to the old Gods, steeped in artificial and perverse mystique in their own twisted charm. This ship will be the home and tomb of 6 million people per generation. A floating country of chaos and nonsense.
Okay, so what are the technological setbacks, never mind the economic ones? Nonetheless, I intend to have such a thing via 2500. A service life of 500 years will end gracefully after the procurement of a 1 Teraton device to go out with a celebratory bang for the Year Three Thousand. Ah.
Well, if that doesn't work, my back up proposal is a 10km Force Octahedron with magnetically induced tumbling action for much G-force related fun.
