Feminist Futures
17:30 - 18:30 CETTwenty years ago the internet was conceived as an open technology that would bring equality and freedom. Today, it is a space structured by patriarchal, capitalist practices: surveillance, digital colonialism, misinformation, or sexism - just to name a few. How can we fight these inequalities and initiate social change?
Feminist Futures is an ongoing participatory art project that initiates, creates and archives science fiction stories of a feminist internet. During the Feminist Futures workshop, we will first map current issues of the internet and get into a debate. Second, we use imagination and narration as tools to re-imagine the Internet through stories, comics or poems. Fiction, in this context, becomes a cultural communal practice that enables political action by re-writing and co-creating feminist futures.
This workshop is limited to 25 participants. Please register your interest to participate here.
