An investigation of how to disobey biased digital archives and thereby challenge our idea on sexuality and gender.
With A Mutant’s Touch the newborn art collective -PHILE wish to investigate the erobot’s potential of disobeying biased digital archives.
The erobot in this artistic research takes shape as a hybrid between a latex video screen, a performer and a soundscape. Through a sensual interplay the artists want to morph, blend and distort binary narratives to suggest ways of queering the digital future.
The art collective -PHILE consists of Sofia Stål (artist+set designer), Ville Vidø (video artist + photographer), Laura Gerdes-Miranda (producer), Stina Force (dancer and drummer) and Hala Namer (sound artist). The artistic team investigate what biology, gender and identification means in a technological age. They create art projects by colliding different media to co-create fictional queer narratives.
