talk on conference website
From Cyberfeminism to XenoFeminism - a short history of radical appropriations of media. This discussion will question how media is made (for whom and for what) and how meaning is produced through different contexts. it will feature media hacks and productions spanning a century and three continents.
Sci-Hub, film excerpts, Red Planet and more will be referenced. It will also address how and where media matter, comparing different technologies, commenting on CCC projects and what is more/less relevant in different African and European contexts. We will also explore how media and technical developments are informed by their social, economic and political environments.
