Since the dawn of humanity, we have pursued the Promethean dream of creating in our own image. From Vaucanson’s automatons to Pascal’s mechanical calculators, this quest has shaped our civilization.

Text, image, melody: everything now merely awaits our desire, materialized in a few clicks, to transform us into artists with a simple snap of the fingers, without the shadow of a transaction.
