義大利藝術家瓦倫蒂諾的作品《2041》創作靈感部分來自喬治．歐威爾的小說《1984》。作品《2041》的世界觀設定於反烏托邦的未來，網路及社群媒體全面掌握人與人之間的社交關係。臉書資訊的透明將每個人都轉變成了彼此的老大哥；刪去的臉書個人檔案永久失能而被系統所排除。社交關係的唯一目標與目的窄化為搜集足夠多社群認證的「讚」，「讚」定義了個人認同與存在的價值。

《2041》中所有的影像片段皆來自線上資料，藉由一個小男孩順利刪去他的個人線上檔案，進而進入離線世界而將影像片段串連起新的故事性。除了上述的討論，《2041》亦藉由使用這些線上影像，提出影像的再編輯、拼組對於原有影像意義上的翻轉，也側面提出了虛擬領域中的作者與智財權概念。

The inspiration of the Italian artist Valentino’s artwork, 2041, is derived partly George Orwell’s fiction, 1984. The world in 2041 is set in the future of Dystopia, where the Internet and social media have full control over the social relationships among people. The transparency of Facebook information turns everyone the Big Brother to each other, whereas the deleted individual profile on Facebook will lose its function, excluded by the system. The sole purpose and goal of social relationship are narrowed to collecting enough “Likes” approved by the community, while “Like” defines the identity and value of individual’s existence.

All the video footages in 2041 came from the Internet. Through a boy who successfully deleted hi personal profile online, it enters the offline world and strings up new narrative with footages. In addition, with utilization of these online images, 2041 proposes the flipping of meaning initiated from the re-editing and assembling of images to the original images, while proposing the rights of author and intellectual property in the virtual realm.
