What is Possibly Everything We Have Been Told about Dating(ish)?
Digital Bodies materialized as a two-part project:

Zine - "Possibly Everything We Have Been Taught About Dating(ish)"

A collaborative publication that critically examines digital romance through :

Personal narratives & interviews – First-hand reflections on dating apps, online attraction, and self-curation.

Emoji analysis – The semiotics of digital affection, visual intimacy, and coded desire.

Speculative writing & media critiques – Dissecting pop-culture influences on digital love.


Research & Speculative Inquiry


Historical analysis of digital matchmaking – From classified ads to algorithmic love.

Data extraction & desirability politics – How visibility, bias, and exclusion shape digital attraction.

Reflections on online selfhood – Examining curated identity, performance, and trust in virtual intimacy.

Rather than presenting online dating as good or bad, Digital Bodies frames it as a space of negotiation—where attraction is both shaped by and resistant to technological mediation.
