participative performance, 2020
website, phone, participants

www.grindruberairbnb.exposed (GUA) leads participants in a choreographed performance via their phones. Accessing the website via smartphone, participants are guided in a series of gestures and actions. Together, these movements create a cohesive and synchronized performance.

The name groups three digital services—Grindr, Uber, AirBnB—that choreograph bodies, vehicles, and real estate from a digital vantage.

While condensing an image of networked control, the project presents a vision of atomized actors acting as one, raising the possibility of the network as a tool for large-scale collective action.
