I. POETRY COLLECTION
SexLikeYours is an experimental uncanny queer poetry
collection written in collaboration with an edgy DL text A.I.
The model was trained on lyrics of favourite [activist] music -
but also on a database of pre-trained texts. Writing poetry together with this A.I.
reflects on what the DeepMind of the internet sees as sex, intimacy and love.
In a proces of reflecting, curating and framing - the DL model led to a
version that is able to ghostwrite poetic in fluid ways.
The intimacy in the process of writing reflects on the questions Cyanne opens
to herself, her automated sources of queer inspiration, her technological
infused body and her desires for intimacy with machines.
The symbiotic writing process with the algorithm explores questions like
* what it’s like to have a body * a queer body * a non material body *
* a body made out of words * a body that can only be explored by computing power? *
