On the strangeness of the contemporary world, the philosopher Odo Marquard (1999) states that "the numerous scientific and technical advances existing in a society impose an additional obstacle on individuals in acquiring and employ experience in a world where, what is familiar and close, rapidly becomes strange." This strangeness can be the result of a process of acceleration of life and daily life, in which, for example, a more obscure determination of the origins of certain problems converges; A more volatile division of power; A frontier in access to power; Hidden opponents; Drastic changes in the environment around us - rural or urban, the rapid obsolescence of objects, our countless heterodox social and networking. Everything collaborates to feel the most nebulous and ambiguous world, victims and inhabitants of a Pandora's box, in a revised and augmented variant.

"Objectos de Companhia para um Mundo Aparentemente Contínuo" inhabits this strangeness and it is organized according to a logic an opened or fragmented content. It is an unfinished hiking trail - an artistic path and a fiction.
