I don't know which article you are referring to, but cloning is generally portrayed unfavorably in the movies.
Let's take for example the movie "The Island" which showed that cloning is a potential source of suffering for the people cloned or "Never Let me go" which also showed suffering fr the cloned people.
It iuses imagery to express a desire for the melding of the natural world (mammals, pure water, clear sky) with the artificial (cybernetic, computers, programming) in "harmony".
