Is hardware virtuality about to emerge? Here, the boundaries between the natural and the synthetic are erased to give way to a new reality, plural and enigmatic. Welcome to the fascinating world of Neo-materialities, where human creativity and technological advances come together to shape a future where anything is possible. From 3D printed pollen grains to digitally created flowers, we enter a digital forest with the sweet scent of spring, where the wind caresses our faces while synthesized sounds lull us to sleep with birdsong. A paradoxical world that irresistibly attracts us, inhabited by organic and algorithmic architectures, where every pixel can be touched and felt.

In these desert and futuristic universes, the laws of physics are eclipsed and inconsistencies appear, giving us sensations that the real world would never make us feel. Sabrina Ratté offers us an enchanting journey through the vestiges of our humanities, at the heart of surreal digital landscapes, governed by their own virtual temporality. At his side, Chloé Rutzerveld invites us to a gastronomic feast, combining cellular cuisine and in vitro agriculture... A black paradise in which only the ghost of Mother Nature reigns as before -bitter-sweet taste of the world after.
