Objects of Desire

Beftival Museumnacht 2021

6 Nov 2021

Can algorithms morph our sexual sensitivity?

Objects of Desire by Pleun van Dijk investigates the increasingly intimate relationship between human and technology. A series of selected images representing human genitals as well as sex toys were translated into a dataset of a machine learning model. Collaborating with the generative algorithm a series of anthropomorphic, human-like, sculptures were created.

Curious how a lust-object from the future looks and feels like? You can see and touch it during Beftival.
