Talk "Dating Data in the Digital Era" with Karen Lancel and Éva Ostrowska

Every Emoji, every WhatsApp message, every »Like« on Instagram, and every left or right swipe on Tinder influences our social behaviours and relationships. Artist and researcher Karen Lancel from Lancel/Maat explores embodiment, empathy, and intimacy as well as isolation and estrangement in (non-)human interactions. Meanwhile, Éva Ostrowska, artist and designer, uses traditional weaving methods to criticise social dynamics and relationships in a digital era from a feminist perspective. Mea Hoffman, curator at the Vitra Design Museum, was the host of this conversation (held on 3 November 2022) on how technology and framed data collected from the interpretation of intimate connections affect human interactions and social behaviours.
