Gender and technology: acting out the future of ethics

In this workshop, Michael Laundry proposes to use a rich discussion of narrative ethics as the starting point for considering feminist subjectivities related to technology and future concepts of gender.
Part of the workshop will use playback and Theatre of the Oppressed techniques, which have been used as dramatic tools for conflict resolution. A theoretical underpinning to this type of work is inspired August Boal.
The workshop will also use text primarily drawn from the Feminist manifesto, titled the Xeno Feminist Manifesto by Luboria Cubonics. Through a process of negotiated close readings and playful interventions this workshop will use performing arts, tools and literary interpretation to consider concepts of citizenship, technology and identity.
