are we?

Alessandra Sanguinetti

(…) I had this dream, this whole thought when I was making the project, about how we are computers, how our brains are CPUs. How we are uploading, we are downloading, we are processing, we are transmitting information back and forth. And some of us are told that the way we were created hold these bugs and these viruses, these things that make us unique. Whether it’s our sexuality, whether it’s because we’re black, whether it’s because we’re women, whether it’s because we’re poor. You know, I’m just naming a few of these marginalized groups, but some people say that those are bugs, those are viruses, and ‘Dirty Computer’ is saying, “No, those are our attributes, those are feautures. You know, this helps make the world better.”
