︎︎︎.tetem_is_closed

This game is based on the first photo on the internet of a lesbian couple. The photo is the only queer in a dataset of an image-creating algorithm. Based on that data, the algorithm learns to recognise patterns and characteristics. The training of this data results in a model, which is then used to make predictions and decisions and, in this case, create images.

Help the photo feel less lonely by solving minigames and collect data about queer literature and pop culture. Your choices determine how the story unfolds. In an experimental manner, this game provides an insight into the invisible choices that are made when training algorithms.

︎︎︎.seeding_venus

seeding_venus is the replica (3 times the size) of the Venus of Willendorf, a sculpture of a female body made 29,500 years ago. The proportions of the original reflect how a woman would view her own body from a first-person perspective...

This reinterpretation of the Venus shows how the sculpture is labelled in datasets (in CAPSLOCK) and in lower case the prompts added to the creation of new images to break this gaze.

New venusses are being generated with the help of an image creation algorithm: based on an image of the venus, donated body parts and prompts.
These generative images attempt to hack current perceptions, standards, and interpretations of femininity and beauty that are limited to the training data of algorithms.
