The people who lived inside a tale
It could be anticipation, or even science fiction. It could be an episode from The Twilight Zone. If it were, it would probably be entertaining and lead to an interesting reflection. But it’s reality. It’s happening, right now, next to us. Just like that, entertainment is out, and reflection matters more than ever. ...

Without a touch
Have you ever tried to make a phone ring just by looking at it? To make time go faster by watching the clock hands (but very, very intensively)? Carrie could throw a hell of a party with only her mind. Samantha just had to touch her nose to do magic. And any Jedi could ...

Big Brother can’t see it all
When asked what super power they would like to have, people always find a lot of ideas. They want to fly (but come on, do you have any idea how COLD it is up there? When you could be so comfortable in a plane?), to read into other people’s minds (and destroy your ego for ...

On the edge
There is a difference between going through a dangerous situation, and willingly putting ourselves into it. The success of activities such as skydiving or bungee jumping proves that danger attracts (some) people. But it can also serve artistic purposes, among others. Whether it’s for personal, political, or sociological reasons, what’s going through those artist’s minds ...
