The citizen of Ludum love to wander and get lost into the wild of virtual reality. Filled with an intense joy, they dive head first into this very attractive and fascinating vortex, where the reproduction of reality is so much more addictive and fascinating that reality itself. Their true dreams, their wildest fantasies, come true. Finally, true happiness is at a hand reach! Superb, ravishing dancers suddenly appears. They dance quickly, they seem to set themselves free from the bleak edges of the physical world. They are beautiful, powerful, immortal. The realm of reality seems to extend, unfold, and reach an infinite horizon. Playing with the limits between what is possible and what is not, to the point of dissolving them, raises questions. What will happen to Ludum and its inhabitants? At a time where the virtual and the real generates each other, are we still able to distinguish them? Are we still equipped with such a thing as a “sense of life”?
