A meta-vision, manipulating the digital, with feedbacks and analog effects rendered with lenses and hand-made instruments. No narrative purpose, but its embryonic form: a metaphor, whose etymology conveys a sense of transport (here a transfer between symbols: square circle triangle – hand eye mouth). A journey through a bizarre pupil at the limit between the natural and the synthetic.

Touching an always fleeting image, brushing the great myth of the myth-absence (ie Athens and its Acropolis today).
