What happens if we don’t act with foresight? - we make mistakes. Mistakes that are not accepted in an advanced society. How do we enable ourselves to get access to a world that has so far only been pure imagination? We create playable worlds of make-believe. They serve as laboratories. Interfaces between genuineness and modification. As isolated systems they meet their designated function of imitating given regularities. Using them, we as humans can pursue our urge for extension of our habitat, the increase of our standard of living as well as the prolongation of our lifespan. With this work, the evidentiary characteristic of the photographic medium can be questioned in a sense that the context of each image might differ from what can be expected at first appearance. Therefore, neither the image itself, nor its significate are what they pretend to be. The photographic depiction serves as another duplicate that carries a vague notion of reality towards the spectator - a reference to our long acquired visual habit. The spectrum of these imitations crosses many branches of society. In the manufacturing and security industry as well as in the context of education and entertainment, the course is set for transformation that we as a society will notice in the long run.
