By any measure, we live in an extraordinary and extreme time. Language can no longer describe the world in which we live. With antique ideas and old formulas, we continue to describe a world that is no longer present. In this loss of language, the word gives way to the image as the 'language' of exchange, in which critical thought disappears to a diabolic regime of conformity - the hyper-real, the omnipresent image. Language, real place gives way to numerical code, the real virtual; metaphor to metamorphosis; body to disembodiment; natural to supernatural; many to one. Mystery disappears, replaced by the illusion of certainty in technological perfection.Godfrey Reggio

Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe, so we are no longer conscious of its presence.Godfrey Reggio

It's not that we use technology, we live technology.Godfrey Reggio

I think it's naive to pray for world peace if we're not going to change the form in which we live.Godfrey Reggio

So to hope to be able to have peace, to be able to have justice and environmental balance, are consequences of our behavior, not just our intentions.Godfrey Reggio
