Do androids dream of electric sheep?...

Everyone knows the movie Blade Runner (I guess) but maybe some of you don't know that it was based on a 1968 book written by Philip K. Dick, and the title was precisely that of "electric sheep".

 Can a machine ever dream?... Can an artificial being really feel?... Can a non-living being want to live?... Can a code be so complex that at some point it wants to stop being just code?...

These questions are not taken from any book. I just wrote them as soon as I rendered the image above... I was trying something new that I can't reveal to you and I just undid something and created the image.

While rendering I remembered the book and suddenly had the impulse to write that... Does all this have any relation to this game?... You'll have to find out for yourselves...

Blade Runner is a masterpiece, if you ask me. Always worth as an inspiration.

Very true... I'm a fan of movies and science fiction, and also some supernatural touches. I used to read a lot, especially the works of Asimov and Stephen King. I'm old school in that sense.
