About The Artwork
The first connection of organic and inorganic in digital culture happened with the computer virus "I love you". It was a text message entitled "I love you", which was activated by opening it. It was programmed to spread independently using the addresses and contacts that the user has on the computer. The machine spread its love to millions of people in just a few days. It was preceded by Ballard's idea elaborated in the novel Crash, about people who recreate the car accidents of famous movie stars so that their bodies also fuse with metal and machine parts. This picture shows a city where two very young lovers are racing on a motorcycle through the summer streets. They want to kiss while the machine is speeding along. Just at the moment when their lips meet, the motorcycle loses its balance, and everything ends in a terrible crash. Parts of the machine are scattered on the street. Mixed with human body parts. The memory of the kiss remains for the lovers as a mixture of speed, impact, the roar of the machine, the softness of the lips, the taste of the other, the flight through the air and the terrible final pain. This personal experience does not allow the author to feel a love relationship outside the relationship with the machine. The human body functions only through its technological extensions and appendages. Cyborg love oozes passion as a byproduct, creating personal poetry from the simultaneous pleasure of organic collision and database lamentation.
