Hi Spectralists, If you are in the neighborhood!
Faces@Ars Electronica -- 20 Years of Art, Gender, Technology #GetaHead #EatYourCake As part of the events marking 20 years of Faces in 2017, we are organizing several events at Ars Electronica this year - a panel discussion & the Faces Generated Celebration! We have also reserved a table to get together in the evening and share the videograms! We might also hijack the Radio Fro studio for a longer discussion... Stay tuned! For now, check out some of the videograms - more are still coming in! https://vimeo.com/faceslist Saturday 9 September OK im OÖ Kulturquartier - OK Offenes Kulturhaus Oberösterreich OK-Platz 1, Linz 13:00 - 15:00 #EatYourCake Faces Generated Cupcakes will be served up with a bit of Sekt! The poll entries generated a unique cupcake recipe base that Veronika Krenn and Vesela Mihaylova have prepared. 15:00-16:00 #GetaHead Feminist Climate Change: Beyond the Binary Panel Discussion: From C to X: networked feminisms, explores the theories and practices of cyberfeminism, xenofeminism and feminist critiques of technology. With: Virginia Barratt (VNS Matrix), Annie Goh & Alla Mitrofanova. https://www.aec.at/ai/de/feminist-climate-change-panel/ *** Faces Celebration Dinner 19:30 Gasthaus Alte Welt Hauptplatz 4 (in the back) We have reserved a table for 15 people! Please let us know if you'd like to join (per email or in person!). It would be lovely to have faces and friends join us. We are happy to host you, but unable to invite you! *** http://faces-l.net The Faces mailing list launched in 1997 as a pragmatic response to the needs of a small but growing number of women in media - the question "where are the women?" and the desire to find out what women do with new media defined a gap in existing technological structures and developments. This exposes how gendered constructions come into play as visions for the future are conceived and evolving non-human actors are systematized. But to what end: how do techno-utopic dreams translate into lived realities and for who? The FACES community is administrated and maintained by Diana McCarty, Kathy Rae Huffman, Us(c)hi Reiter and Valie Djordjevic. Since 2002, the Faces mailing list and website have been hosted by servus.at, a non commercial cultural backbone in Linz. ______________________________________________ SPECTRE list for media culture in Deep Europe Info, archive and help: http://post.in-mind.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/spectre
