Sex Catalogue

In an increasingly networked society where people are always ready to connect, the pacing of emotional intimacy has to be constantly tweaked. Dating apps facilitate rapid connection and constant communication, however, they have disillusioned us from raw and intimate connections with each other. Has tinder replaced, or is it on its way to replace the traditional way of connecting with people romantically? During this workshop, we will take a step back and visualize the time before Tinder/Grindr, and breakdown the pros and cons to dating apps. Has tinder facilitated sex? Has it broken values, or broken taboos? Has it made youths and adults look at these apps as a sex catalogue?

Date: 19^th February

Time: 3:00 pm
