Tamagotchi_Balé is about affective dystopias, the end of erotic experience, narcissism and algorithms. Following a logic of hyperlinks, which mixes dream narratives, extensive research on neoliberal subjectivity, companion devices, 1990s films and video games, two women try to establish a relationship on green screens of Zoom. The Tamagotchi was born from an alien plant and is the first experience of a relationship with a machine that my generation has experienced.
