“Los Dígitos: la nueva carne” is a fierce criticism of the deception that involves the immeasurable embrace of incipient technology and how we are deceived by corporations to consume and defend that technology as ours, which, in the end, only turns us into their servants. The human body, the flesh, will be replaced by the digits, the new body to worship and surrender.
The work is a composition created using Motion video software. The visualization is composed of geometries and effects native to the program.
