If I Were In A Space Disassembled From Reality, These Are The Things I’d Bring With Me

By finding sanctum within alternate platforms of existence, queerness has found its feet, regardless of numerous hegemonic hurdles. Digital space and virtual environments have provided a means to explore, experiment and express oneself freely, safeguarded from the alienation and heteronormativity of the physical domain. A non-binary domain can be translated as a spatial quality within extended realities of digital existence, forming a new lens of spatial experience through the decoding and personification of machine learning and procedural coding; a behavioural analysis that safeguards the alienation we experience within our heteronormative world. This research proposition takes a speculative approach to the concept of queering code, expanding upon what it means to experience space with a non-binary lens, excluded or disregarded from the domain of the real. A Non-Binary existence has traditionally been excluded from the domain of the real, alleviating the pressures of one’s physical landscape. It is, as a result of this physical alienation that queer and non-binary folk have adopted alternative domains, reclaiming their existence within a reality they can call their own (Cabiria, 2008, 4).These alternative realities become self-made prophecies in which pilots find comfort in residing as a digital extension of themselves. Understanding the interrelationship between gender and code-space provides a new domain for discourse through virtual inhabitation. Creating an experience in which pilots can experience code-space away from predetermined binary code allows for experimentation. This provides pilots with a rare opportunity to explore the behaviours and parameters of humanness and societal- political structures within a non-binary framework</p
