Summary
'Producing Futures: A Book on Post-Cyber-Feminisms' focuses on feminist concerns in the postinternet era. While in the 1990s cyber-feminism -- a term coined by artist collective VNS Matrix -- celebrated the cyberspace as a place of liberation and empowerment, one is now confronted with the fact that, rather, it multiplied and enforced existing hierarchies and power structures. Thus the question remains of whether the cyberspace can be appropriated when striving for gender justice, emancipation and social equality. As the virtual world(s) and real life are increasingly merging, artists reflect on and productively alienate the tools and platforms on hand to produce a future that is worth living in -- offline and online. -- publisher's statement.
