Sneha Solanki  ‘The Lovers’

Two networked machines, one infected with a virus, slowly infects the other through the interface of classic romantic poetry.

A breakdown in the relationship was inevitable once the virus had seeped into the memory of one machine and then into the other through a singular network cable affecting the poetic text files. Communication between the two deteriorated, leading to irrational & at times odd behaviour. Each machine reacted with equal confusion and conflict. The interface text became an illegible poetic mutation of itself.

we as a society need to put more focus on robotic love interests who are quite literally just giant fucking computers. this girl is a big blocky machine. takes up a whole room. not a single limb in sight. everything she says is barely comprehensible because her voice sounds so weird. yes it does make her 50x sexier
