Description

What would it be like if we had the chance to have intimate experiences with different kinds of people, different kinds of voices? How would it be different to get intimate with a low-pitched voice entity, vs a high-pitched one?

cyber$exb0t is an experience that allows users to playfully explore intimacy with different voices from the computer. They will have the option of choosing a voice to interact with, and go on a series of on-screen interactions to satisfy the computer through a cybersex chat. We are hoping that through this experience, people will be more open to having intimate interactions with different voices.

The mood of this experience is sexy, nostalgic, and fun! The aesthetics are heavily inspired by early 2000's cybersex chatrooms on AIM.

Description

Men all have a well-framed dating app bio. However, we all had a weird and frustrating dating story behind it. No matter what happened on our date, there's only one ending – we never talked again.

The project explores using existing datasets on the Internet and brings awareness of dating data privacy to the audience.

Swipe! Use it as a regular Tinder. If you swipe right, you will get my dating story with the man you matched. The chat stores all the men you connect with and the dating story behind them.
