- Welcome to Erewhon is an adaptation of Samuel Butler's visionary novel Erewhon, published in 1872, in which he speculates about an imaginary country and in so doing, pushes our way of attributing meaning to the world to the very limits of its logic. One hundred and fifty years after Samuel Butler's initial voyage, Erewhon has changed a lot. Automatization has been taken to the limit and work as we know it has disappeared. Factories produce all of life's necessities. Production, storage and handling are outsourced to warehouses outside of town, where there are no humans. Farms rear animals, grow crops and transform the produce. Vehicles deliver it. Software programs optimize the system. The inhabitants have been rid of any exacting activities and are free to devote themselves to the pursuit of pleasure. They have made a selection so that the only machines that remain close-by are those that afford them a measure of well being; the others are relegated to the periphery. Humankind now only works to develop and extend its leisure activities and childhood lasts much longer. Robot otters take care of the elderly and purr following the instructions of their AI, whereas other robots are in charge of massaging inhabitants and preparing their meals. GPS-equipped cats map out the surrounding areas; robotic vacuum cleaners discover sensuality and pigs with augmented brains are connected in a network.

World Brain explores the utopian dreams and ideologies connected to the development of collective intelligence and the idea of a worldwide network. "World Brain" follows the wanderings of a group of researchers who try to survive in the forest using Wikipedia, aiming at nothing less than the creation of an alternative project securing the survival of manhood.
- We are exploring a city that produces itself behind screens: in the advertisements for our technological devices, the videos employees record in call centers, the ones we share when we watch cats playing with vacuum cleaners. It's a city where machines are responsible for work, and take care of humans. An engineer's dream, in which we all participate by watching these videos, and pushing them to the top of platform playlists. We're not trying to imagine the future. We are exploring a particular form of our imagination. We are documenting early twenty-first century fantasies of automation. This city exists, but it can't be located at a specific point on the Earth's surface, whose geographic coordinates can be clearly identified. It is made up of images circulating on the Internet. Its existence consists of being diffracted within the network. We are documenting a city that exists today behind our screens. We have not produced any of the images ourselves. We borrow and arrange based on images found on the network. The film's chapters consist entirely of shots taken from the Internet, of "found footage."
