<br>Lab Meeting #4: "Pulling the strings together: techno-politics, practices and
<br>strategies at the intersection of computing/theory/arts"
<br>Part of the project CF+: Reconfiguring Computing Through Cyberfeminism and New
<br>MaterialismEvent date: 29 April 2019Time: 12:00 - 17:00Location: Research
<br>Center for Information System Design (ITeG), Pfannkuchstr. 1, 34121
<br>KasselOrganisers: Gender/Diversity in Informatics Systems, University of
<br>KasselMore info: http://tinyurl.com/yy4nmzrz This last Lab Meeting of CF+
<br>project will bring the three intersecting strands together:
<br>cyber/techno-feminism, new materialism and computing. Participants will be
<br>invited to think together: what is at stake in contemporary computing in the
<br>way it re/figures materiality (of bodies, subjects-users, objects)? What are
<br>the urgencies in the technopolitics of computing as it meets feminism and
<br>arts? What are the blindspots of critical theories that we have at our
<br>disposal when it comes to accounting for these urgencies and generating
<br>alternatives? The Lab Meeting will be structured around three presentations
<br>from guest contributors:Sandra Buchmüller (TU Braunschweig): "Feminist
<br>Design Research in the light of cyber-/techno-feminism and feminist new
<br>materialism"Isabel Paehr (Artist, Berlin): "Developing speculative game
<br>mechanics"Pat Treusch (TU Berlin): "Knitting together/Living together: On
<br>human-robot collaboration through craft"
<br>About CF+ CF+ is a project of the Gender/Diversity in Informatics Systems
<br>research lab at the University of Kassel, Germany. The project aims to lay the
<br>groundwork for revisiting dominant modes and practices of knowledge and
<br>artefact production in computer science through cyberfeminist and feminist
<br>new materialist lenses. It also aims to consolidate a network of researchers,
<br>artists and designers working on and interested in these issues for on-going
<br>collaboration. More here: www.uni-kassel.de/go/CFplus/ RegistrationIf you
<br>wish to register for Lab Meeting, please send an email

<br>CF+ network of scholars, artists and designers interested in the intersection
<br>between computer science and feminist theory, please also send a link to your
