DATA DATING
An Anti-Tinder Experience







Imagine a digital platform that challenges the conventional mechanisms of online dating. "Data Dating" emerges as an alternative application, a playful yet thought-provoking commentary on the modern landscape of digital matchmaking. Rather than guiding users toward predefined romantic interests, this innovative app orchestrates a series of encounters with the unknown. It operates as a kind of anti-Tinder, subverting the very principles upon which dating apps typically function.




The core idea behind "Data Dating" is to encourage a deeper exploration of the ineffable and unexpected aspects of human interaction. Users are invited to step out of their comfort zones, setting aside algorithms designed to match preferences, and instead embrace spontaneity, serendipity, and the mystery that comes from not knowing who or what to expect. The app aims to critique, in a light-hearted yet poignant manner, the over-reliance on digital technologies that often streamline our social interactions to a point where unpredictability is lost.

With "Data Dating," each interaction is a journey into the unknown. It provokes users to re-engage with the element of surprise, rekindling the excitement that comes from genuine human connection—one that cannot be fully mapped or understood by algorithms. Through these surprising and sometimes bewildering meetings, the app offers a fresh perspective on relationships, highlighting the beauty of randomness in an increasingly data-driven world.


Disobedient Objects
In a world increasingly pervaded by precision and glossy algorithms, we need to get lost and let ourselves go through these disobedient objects. An invitation to detach oneself, to get lost in the city, to walk around looking as if lost, curious, to feel in another place, an unknown place, to understand that there is still much to see and experience in our city. The city we usually traverse is just one of many.
