Description
Tender Digitality describes an aesthetically oriented concept that sets a binary system in motion and portrays humans as Human Digitalus. In doing so, it responds to the need to experience sensuality, perception, intuition, and well-being in digital environments, making this experience tangible and developing a language for it.
Tender Digitality operates in the space between analog and digital, social and technical phenomena, weaving them into ever-changing, never fixed patterns. In this way, it shapes, reflects, and fosters a community where individuals and artificial intelligences, avatars, and cyborgs navigate digitally, intuitively, and sensitively, contributing to a gentle co-creation.
The focus is on initial categorization and conceptual clarification, socio-cultural aspects such as grief, loss, and distance in the digital world, design-oriented and artistic methods for applying Tender Digitality, and the interaction between humans, machines, and human-machine hybrids.
With this publication, perspectives and discussions are intended to be illuminated and debated in various forms such as essays, poetry, images, and graphics.
