Works like the last projects, where the author collects footage items, outtakes and unused material that is kept under the Creative Commons license for future productions, is edited with a clear desire to recycle files that have been thrown into the net, however, Bayona adds in his works a new sense of irony, like in his work Cosmonaut, breaking with the established patterns and satirizing as well the actual digital media.
