Design sans titre-92

In a futuristic amusement park, visitors are invited to enter the world of their choice. They move among the robots in an exact reproduction of the Wild West. One day, the machines stop responding and start wreaking havoc. Michael Crichton describes a factice world of illusions and the collapse of its vast stage. His work undeniably continues to echo contemporary anxieties.
