Ali Banisadr Quotes
"Motherboard," for me, has four different levels: the bottom part is the water, vegetation, and growth. The second part is the world with figures and animals; there's chaos and civilization.

This idea of how we're becoming partly digitalized is really interesting to me.Ali Banisadr
