An Internet user enters the mental space of an artificial intelligence in search of Francine Descartes, the daughter of René Descartes. This intelligence produces an infinite number of images from a sequence of words ordered by men, until it functions on its own, without human intervention. An alternative, emaciated world, containing all the world’s memory, becomes possible.
