An Analysis of the Matrix with Special Emphasize on Jean Baudillard’s Simulacra and Simulation Salini Lr

Simulacra and Simulation is a book written by Jean Paul Baudillard in the year 1981.He begins his essay by discussing about simulacrum and simulation. According to him genetic miniaturization forms an important part of simulacrum. That is the real can be produced from miniaturized cells, matrices, memory banks and modes of control. It is called hyperreal. It blurs the distinction between real and imaginary and results in the production of models with simulated differences. He says that simulation is not a sort of pretending.  Then he gives the example of religious faith and worshipping of God. The God is reduced to a system of signs that constitute the faith. When God is represented in the form of images we are actually acknowledging his death and disappearance.
