PRESS CONFERENCE
1st CYBERFEMINIST INTERNATIONAL
13:00, Saturday Sept 27
HYBRID WORKSPACE ORANGERIE
For the last eight days, the Orangerie has been home to the 1st
CYBERFEMINIST INTERNATIONAL, a cross-cultural meeting of women who have
discussed, debated, workshopped and made presentations. They have
immersed themselves in technology, politics, theories, working on forms
of representations - getting more than just their hands and keyboards
dirty.
This diverse group have very different backgrounds - from programmers to
web mistresses, from artists to theorists, from networkers to geeks and
floating in between. Within the context of the world's largest art
exhibition, documenta, they are developing viral forms of art
technologies.
At the press conference the group will discuss the 1st CYBERFEMINIST
INTERNATIONAL as well as presenting their 100 anti-thesis of
cyberfeminism.
In the afternoon the final public program will be presented on Saturday
from 14:15 - 17:00:
14:15 Vesna & Nikolina Manojlovic - performance "Hair across the
borders"
15:00 Helene von Oldenburg - lecture "SpiderFeminism"
16:00 "Who's that girl" - live televized gameshow
16:30 100 anti-thesis - discussion
The 1st CYBERFEMINIST INTERNATIONAL will finish with a genderbending
party from 22:00 on Saturday night, featuring DJs T-Ina & Lars Real. All
welcome - dress or skirt essential.
