The sea remains, tugging at their hearts when not at their hairs and clothes, as it itself is tugged by the virtual moon. The words they have were given to them, as they have always been to lovers everywhere. A surreal game of chess becomes the apparatus through which they, man and woman, can talk. Enabled by intergalactic networks, they touch each other’s holographic bodies in cyberspace. When it all becomes too much, they run towards each other. Walk along the shore, until they meet the emptiness. Yet their heart is full and their mind confused. The empty beach, the strong wind, the gentle music and a small colony of electric seagulls are their only companions. Thoughts from ancient Earth literature by Marguerite Duras. They have lonely walks along the shore of a simulated ocean, thinking wistful thoughts of each other. They pretend to be lovers separated from each other by lightyears of deep space. Bientôt l’été is a videogame for two players.
