Lightbending

Technology is the magical and at the same time terrifying element that determines the role of man in the world, giving him the possibility to evolve and build but also to destroy himself.
Light is a symbol of the control that, through technology, man is able to impose on natural elements, even the most ethereal and intangible ones, transforming them, bending them to his needs and using them for his purposes.
