Fear is related to our cultural measures and imaginations. We experience it while the reserves of social imaginarium don’t offer us any tools to explain what is already happening and what might happen to us. I am analyzing Orchestrer la Perte by Simone Laroche and David Szanto and Lost Drones by The Fortunists, artistic works, which juxtapose technology with the human subject and nature. The authors refer to rather traditional concepts of the subject and nature, which still tend to influence our attitudes. The challenge brought to them by new technologies implies a loss of significant categories organizing the world, which guarantee a sense of safety, and a threat to essential values.
