Description

Queer Babel is a provocation, a forced interaction between two different artificial intelligence interfaces. A digital voice, created using AI software, embodies the words generated by a separate AI program, the results of which are surprising and disturbing. The work functions as homage to Alan Turing and all those who have struggled to live their authentic queer lives, but it also invites questions. How can we use technology to disrupt the algorithmic forces of hatred and oppression?
