If you tell people that scientists have invented medicine for cancer, landed on mars or ozone hole is repaired, they might get a bit of amused or may be get a little exited. Tell them the statue of their God started weeping or started drinking milk, a mass hysteria will break out, they will gather all over the world. That is the power of faith we as a civilisation is addicted towards magic. When one see the way new age technological advancements in electronic and robotics are marketed for its magical features, one is reminded of that power of magic on us. The new media/ technological art is no different. it is the old wine in the new bottle.
