<br>Lab Meeting #1: Cyberfeminist legacies, technofeminist trajectories,
<br>computational practices: where are we today?
<br>
<br>DATE: November 8, 2018
<br>TIME: 14:00 – 17:00
<br>LOCATION: Research Center for Information System Design (ITeG), University of
<br>Kassel, Pfannkuchstraße 1, Kassel
<br>
<br>We kindly invite you to take part in the first lab meeting of the project
<br>“Re-configuring computing through cyberfeminism and new materialism” (CF+)
<br>that will take place on November 8th, 2018, in Kassel. CF+ is a project of the
<br>Gender/Diversity in Informatics Systems research lab at the University of
<br>Kassel, Germany. The project aims to lay the groundwork for revisiting
<br>dominant modes and practices of knowledge and artefact production in computer
<br>science through cyberfeminist and feminist new materialist lenses. It also
<br>aims to consolidate a network of researchers, artists and designers working on
<br>and interested in these issues for on-going collaboration.
<br>
<br>This first meeting is dedicated to exploring cyberfeminist legacies and
<br>technofeminist as well as computational practices today. The lab meeting will
<br>start with a contribution by conceptual artist, interdisciplinary researcher
<br>and educator Cornelia Sollfrank. She was founding member of the collectives
<br>frauen-und-technik (Women and Technology, 1992) and -Innen (1994) and
<br>initiated and ran the world-wide cyberfeminist network Old Boys Network
<br>(1997-2001), including the co-organisation of three international conferences
<br>on Cyberfeminism (1997, 1999, and 2001).
<br>
<br>The second part of the meeting will take form of an in-depth workshop the goal
<br>of which will be to share ideas and flesh out critical questions for further
<br>investigation and lay grounds for the network consolidation.
<br>
<br>The first part of the lab meeting with contribution by C. Sollfrank is open to
<br>anyone but we kindly ask you to register to attend by emailing
<br>goda.klumbyte@uni-kassel.de. If you wish to take part in the full event, i.e.
<br>including the in-depth workshop, as well further activities of network
<br>building and consolidation, please apply by also sending your biographical
<br>note and a brief statement of interest by October 26th, 2018. For more
<br>information about the event, please see the attached flyer.
<br>
<br>We look forward to seeing you at the Lab!
