Diploma project, ECAL 2010
in BACHELOR PHOTOGRAPHY
by Romain Hügli
This work tempts to have a critical view on the evolution of the human societies
from an ideal to a dystopian universe through Second Life, a virtual world
governed by the same capitalist appropriation mechanisms of the real life, but sliding
slowly to an dysfunctional society. To create these images, I have taken the
already made buildings by the users of Second Life - ideal living places, architectures and sets - that I have set up in three dimensions and then photographed.
