S1E0 (Pilot): GRID LOGIC

Marcin Ratajczyk

11.11. – 15.11.2023

GRID LOGIC is a state of mind, a helpless immersion into endless and contradictory bodily potentialities. A homage to the medium of choice for gay hookups -the wonderfully drippy Grindr app - where users are shinyly available on the App’s titular grid. And everything seems to be always coming back to the grid, the future will give us endless variations of the Grindr grid on top of another Grindr grid. And this is how it feels to use the app. Unfortunately we’re spared from observing this infinite regress.
