ok, what is booting? booting is an exploration of the relation between our bodies and technology. technology is something we can choose, like love. bodies are there. it is something that happen to you, like family. it is not gender. technology is part of our natural environment. booting is about the possibility to be something else, restart! objects can be very seductive. but an image is very far from what i subjectively live. "the context of a picture or an image is very different from the sexuality that one experiences with another person, whether for one night or for a whole life", said body gabor... an image can be a registration of the crash between us and machines. or more. do you like me?, asks my computer or am i just using him? what's your value then? and your plus value? but even more: are you alive? affection: this is a kind of a drama, isn't it? why should we care? mankind is compromised we could just avoid any feeling, or memory. but then, what happens? maybe i am sick. i still care. i care for people, i care for machines. and animals. i do love. so what? i would really like to have sex with my computer. yes, that's it. nothing more, nothing less. in this area, as i said, gender is not important. we are all the same in front of a machine. who is root, or what? he is the one for me. the only one who could follow me the trip my path. but listen there are plenty of noises can i find a rhythm ? am i allowed to do that? or it is not permitted .= to feel.
