“The Nexus of The Strange, The Intimate, and The Web” is a catalog of encounters with strangers, the rise of internet culture, and a glimpse into the religious history of confession. The project was born from late nights on Omegle connecting with 40-year-old men as an isolated 12-year-old in the middle of Tennessee. Emotional intimacy is complicated. The boundaries separating public versus private have become even more blurred since the rise of social media. “The Nexus of The Strange, The Intimate, and The Web” serves as a tool for readers to question intimacy, its invasive nature, and to who we reserve our most intimate moments. Throughout this project, there was heavy research into internet forums, religion, the concept of confession, and how we exist as strangers in the world.
