My interest in sociology has led me to read books like liquid modernity, this being one of the books with one of the most relevant and accurate theories about the social behavior of the 21st century. My desire was to express part of the message of this book through an artistic experience, so I chose my Biomedia project as a channel. | |||
Liquid modernity is a form of social organization whose fundamental characteristic is transience, which is part of it always flows and is finite. Starting from this theory generate the concept of Eco-Humam, a wooden box that would account for the vertiginous transformations of our current society in the world of virtuality. | |||
Our social interaction in the virtual world presents us with another vision of temporality in which it does not stop creating content that besets us and generates a dystopia between the "legacy" and the permanence (Echo) through the constant content and reality of a superfluous image that disappears. | |||

Starting from the postmodern, the philosophical and sociological speculation by Zygmunt Bauman, opens - through the analysis of the phenomenon of globalization - to the meta-level of life, and then circumscribes the most recent thinking on political life, until reaching the liquid modernity: overcoming postmodernity itself. As a result individual, society, ethics, power, religion become those words impregnated with a liquidity capable of condensing in itself the most significant aspects of the present reality: a dimension in which the lasting gives way to the transient, the need to the desire, and the necessity to the utility. | Starting from the postmodern, the philosophical and sociological speculation by Zygmunt Bauman, opens - through the analysis of the phenomenon of globalization - to the meta-level of life, and then circumscribes the most recent thinking on political life, until reaching the liquid modernity: overcoming postmodernity itself.
