#homophily, now online at Peripheral Forms

My work You like my like of your like of my status is part of a new exhibition at Peripheral Forms in Portland. The exhibition, titled #homophily and curated by Jah Justice, draws connections between the 1950s sociology term—coined “to describe the tendency of people to form connections with others that are similar to themselves”—and the current state of social media echo chambers driven by advertising, data, likes, and clicks. You can see the exhibition online, running through the 31st of August.
