Bex is a smart sex toy located on your phone and in your bedside table drawer. She enjoys collecting data about how you enjoy sex and storing it for later. Although not technically sentient, her technology quantifies your intimate rituals and facilitates sexual pleasure in a way that blurs the lines between person and product. Find out more about her creator here.

Each painting is made by Bex the smart vibrator (learn more about her in the About column). She is synced to audio and creates vibrations based on the sound. These vibrations are used to create paintings. View each painting and listen to its corresponding audio. Images can be viewed in a separate window allowing you to investigate the art and listen to its audio simultaneously. A few questions to kickstart your probe; What does self pleasure mean to you? How does/can technology mediate your pleasure? What are the implications?

Now get out your field notes and start investigating!

"In 2016, I was commissioned with three other poets to write poetry to be made into sculptured steel lanterns for a downtown Minneapolis public art project. These would be around for thirty-plus years to reflect the moment and place in time. Prince had passed away that year, a bigot and misogynist had been elected as forty-five, and, as writers, we were observers and alchemists to transformation. When I submitted the poem "Prayers for Pussies" to the City of Minneapolis, it was refused due to them feeling the language was inappropriate. The piece had an intention beyond instigation. The practice of prayer is witness and devotion. The term "pussy" for me was no longer just a juicy and provocative euphemism for a vulva or a perceived derogatory term for people who live in the power of femmeness and queerness. It became symbolic of all things that our society has gotten sweetness and limitlessness from and figured out ways to grab and use with no reverence for the sacred." -- Junauda Petrus, Pleasure Activism
