Silicone 5.0

＂There are no detailed elements inside Silicona 5.0. Majfud’s ability to build the world with words goes to Silicona 5.0 in a novel, in its form, brilliantly written. In this case, form and substance correspond to the same combination, giving the reader an experience that is not present in all books.＂
Jorge Mejía
＂The author tells us a true story about the creation of a product of artificial intelligence, in the form of a female android, conceived by a team of men convinced that masculinity is defined by economic success. Facundo Walsh Ocampo is a little like the one we are all over these days, someone who lost his youth by selling his soul to a profitable and empty job.＂

One day, recovering from a heart attack in his Daytona Beach apartment, Facundo Walsh Ocampo discovers that his identity has been stolen and decides to cross the border into Mexico to meet his replacement. In the search for the forger, he will discover a larger forgery, his own. The ruthless competition for economic success has turned the protagonist into a highly effective robot, without memory and without its own identity. In the same way, the robots equipped with artificial intelligence that he himself sells in Asia replace not only sex but also the love and understanding of their owner in a world corrupted by the consumption fever and the destruction of the adversary. With Silicona 5.0 the author of Crisis returns with a counterpoint between the collective present and individual memory, between identity and its substitutes, between the excitement of consumption and the loss of the human factor, between the death of the present and the rebirth of the past as form of ransom and redemption.
