"World Brain" is an essayistic trans-media project by French artists Gwenola Wagon and Stéphane Degoutin. The feature film as well as the interactive website takes the visitors on a dive through the physical shoals of the internet. World Brain explores the utopian dreams and ideologies connected to the development of collective intelligence and the idea of a worldwide network. "World Brain" follows the wanderings of a group of researchers who try to survive in the forest using Wikipedia, aiming at nothing less than the creation of an alternative project securing the survival of manhood.
A disturbing dystopian essay stylistically inspired by Chris Marker's La Jetée. By recycling photographs from personal albums, advertising shots and scientific images manipulated to varying degrees by artificial intelligence tools, it tells the story of a woman in a sunless future, on an arid Earth turned into a desert, and critically and ironically examines humanity's relationship with technology.
"On the Edge of Time" plunges into the imaginary space of artificial intelligence, where the golden age of seaside resorts is revived, from the dune landscape of the early days to the current environmental catastrophe.
