Sentient Looking For Dates


2020-2021

Sentient Looking For Dates is an algorithmic artwork drawing on posts from the semi-anonymous queer dating platform Lex. Lex caters mainly to an audience of lesbian and bisexual women and non-binary people. Only text can be posted, no photos. Sentient Looking For Dates uses a machine learning algorithm to remix and reimagine these posts, creating new and sometimes bizarre visions of identity and desire in the queer community.
Its output is irregularly updated on instagram www.instagram.com/sentientlookingfordates/
