[Nettime-bold] Re: This artwork degrades women. |
I would like to thank Simon Penny for his piece on Alexander Brandt's work at ISEA, and I would like to undescore all that Rachel Schreiber said in her thoughtful response. Though I was not at ISEA i followed the meeting of Faces there with interest. Indeed cyber- and other forms of feminism are not dead though they are often silenced and marginalized by official festivals (even though these festivals often represent themselves as being cutting edge, avantgarde, or activist). As Next Sex at ARS clearly showed, and ISEA corroborated, there is an urgent need for cyberfeminist organizing, critique, intervention, and for proactive work which does not always have to take the form of protesting the depredations that occur every day. I am glad Simon Penny voiced his honest indignation. We need so many more voices to speak and act up. in solidarity, Faith Wilding _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list [email protected] http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
