From an ecological point of view, this investigation tells us the rise of an invention of the 1990s: streaming. THE must-have technology and its exponential carbon footprint are now uncotrollable, to the point of raising the question of its survival. 

By 2025 the emissions emitted by digital technology will be almost equal to those emitted by automobiles worldwide.
To manufacture a RAM stick you need 16,000 times its weight.
To make a car you need 54 times its weight.
There is nothing as raw material intensive among all that mankind has produced as the core of the electronic components used for streaming.
Just like there was an oil shock, do we need a digital shock to make it more sustainable...?

By the 1960s, legendary conceptual artist Donald Judd had grown tired of New York. That's when he remembered Marfa, a cowboy village lost in West Texas--the perfect place, he thought, to be free at last.

Today, despite the artist's death in 1994, Marfa still acts as a magnet for artistic refugees. What are all these modern-day "Marfians" looking for? In five subjective and suggested portraits, I [art] MARFA is a poetic postcard, sent from an eerie Texas ghost town that never destined itself to so much strangeness.
