So what if art could help us resist and bridge the gap between the real and the virtual? That is Kade Atya's question.

Kader AttiaGUEST
My work actually explores the notion of memories that have been structuring the human beings since we left the caves, and the fact that this data, the mnésic data, so memories, have been exchanged through civilizations.

Kader AttiaGUEST
Nowadays, what we used to consider as external memory, such as, I don't know, traces, I mean, made with pen, writing, USB stick, data online, building a virtual world.

Kader AttiaGUEST
And therefore, mirroring our world, I was very interested to ask Samuel, do they think about the relation between our beliefs into magic, into spirits, into, you know, invisible forces and technology? For shamans, particularly one of them, some of them says that the world of invisible and spirit is preparing a war against human civilization through digital.

Kader AttiaGUEST
And we cannot deny that today there is a new form of colonization that happens through technology.

Kader AttiaGUEST
It's not only a colonization that works through the hegemony or the spreading worldwide of digital devices such as smartphone and computer, etc., or even the computational writing.
