What happened to the aspirations of 1990s cyberfeminists to sabotage the Big Daddy Mainframe?

Examining how “technology is both a source and a consequence of gender relations”, ten years after the original term was coined, Judy Wajcman wrote the book TechnoFeminism building on the insights of cyberfeminism.

On the occasion of the publication of Beautiful Warriors in English translation, edited by Cornelia Sollfrank, Mindy Seu, Judy Wajcman and chair Marie Thompson explore contemporary theories and practices of technofeminism. Incorporating ecological, decentralized, economic and intersectional perspectives, they look at how today’s forms of discrimination and exploitation are being responded to by feminist hackers, techno-eco-feminists and others.

This is a recording of a panel discussion at New Suns: A Feminist Literary Festival, held on Saturday 5 October 2019, Barbican Centre.
