This new world, a virtual great ark, offers us a vision of the living in its social and political dynamics, creating its own history, its own genetics, its own language. The Precious Chimeras, these hybrid and eccentric beings, are so difficult to grasp... we see them, we touch them, we transform them, they look at us, they flee from us, they defy us. Most of the time they live their autonomous lives, among themselves, without paying any attention to us.
