With summer fast approaching, Aurélien Mole offers us a little springtime warm-up before we dive into our summer workbooks. A timeless classic, the “Spot the 7 Differences” game takes us back to this seemingly trivial exercise, which nonetheless reflects a technological dilemma reminiscent of the procedural generation of virtual environments and artificial intelligence—a phenomenon that challenges our relationship with the world and its representation more than ever since the invention of photography, photomontage, and the manipulation of information. This is what Ivars Gravlejs depicts in *My Newspaper* in the face of our apathy toward the press and images. More recently, the video game *Viewfinder* from Sad Owl Studio challenges us to solve certain problems of representation using our photographic equipment—a Polaroid.

Behind Aurélien Mole’s amused gaze lies a fleeting interplay and a commonplace—that of memory and recollections. By drawing the viewer’s gaze to details, making us scan the image with our eyes, we reassemble fragments of infiltrated memories, offering a glimpse of narrative possibilities in which errors have been transformed into differences, and whose lack of a trophy is removed from the desire to replay them.
