Two movies dealing about the question of what is real, [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/ 'The Matrix'] (1999) by the Wachowski brothers and [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070904/ 'World on Wires'] (1973, orig. title 'Welt am Draht') by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, are left to the electronic brain of a computer to create, with its countless circuits instructed by a programmer, a reality partly constructed partly real to explore reality and its constructed nature. The outcome is a formal critique of (mass-)media's reality. | Two movies dealing about the question of what is real, [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/ 'The Matrix'] (1999) by the Wachowski brothers and [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070904/ 'World on Wires'] (1973, orig. title 'Welt am Draht') by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, are left to the electronic brain of a computer to create, with its countless circuits instructed by a programmer, a reality partly constructed partly real to explore reality and its constructed nature.
