Продолжаю смотреть, что на английском писали/говорили про киберфеминизм в последние несколько лет. Вот дискуссия про репродуктивный труд и пост-киберфеминизм https://archive.ica.art/whats-on/what-can-post-cyber-feminism-do-reproductive-justice
Провели в Лондоне пикет по делу сестер Хачатурян в рамках акции международной феминисткой солидарности #freekhachaturyansisters. Мне тут кажется важным отметить, что это далеко не единичный случай и не «ошибка» правосудия. Это дело идеально отражает устройство государственно-правовой системы в России, защищающей насильника, а не жертву. Впрочем, в этом мало удивительного, учитывая, что государство само действует как систематический абьюзер в отношении собственных граждан

Наткнулась на статью авторки проекта Sonic Cyberfeminism Annie Goh, в которой она сравнивает Ксенакиса и Джудит Батлер
Заступая на территорию канала "дайджест антропоцена" наткнулась на красивый и понятный словарь нового материализма с библиографией по каждому термину авторства рабочей группы из Уттрехтского Университета https://newmaterialism.eu/index.html
Ну и известная многим книжка The Posthuman Glossary https://library1.org/_ads/3691AD67C1EA194E8784709DA4B22B13
"My book on Flyology shall contain a list of the advantages resulting from flying and it shall also contain a complete explanation of the anatomy of a bird"
О. у Radical philosophy же целый номер про про воспроизводство. Пока просто радостный постинг, потому что я только обнаружила его (вышел он несколько месяцев назад, я просто слепая), так что вчитаюсь через какое-то время https://www.radicalphilosophy.com/issues/204

As soon as you say the word “theory” you are in a modernist (or modern), human-centred position.

hey do not concern me in the sense that they would interest me. I’m sorry that the art world is so vulnerable to “trends” and “brands.” It seems that the so-called “French Theory”—a pure export product—has a lot of “indigenous” successors, rivalling each other to conquer such a market. But to me, they are mainly parasitic symptoms of the quite unhealthy environment we are living in, where master-discourses proliferate.



“My” Gaïa also intrudes upon the use of the Anthropocene in trendy and rather apolitical dissertations.

Не читала это интервью с Изабель Стенджерс, она прекрасная: раздает тумаков всем любителям ставить тег "антропоцен"

IS Feminism was a constitutive and vital part of my educational and affective trajectories. In the 1980s, before its theorization, eco-feminism marked the crucial beginning of “transformative politics,” which has inhabited my thinking and yearning ever since. It seems that the feeling of irreversible and catastrophic loss indeed offers affinities with feminist thought, which attempts to weave together thinking, imagining, and practically enacting; that is to say, it can revitalize thinking around stakes which are irreducible to a matter of academic rivalry. I would say that the effective existence of feminism (beyond post-, queer-, and all that) depends on a culture of resolute disloyalty for those abstractions which Virginia Woolf described as turning a beloved brother into a “monstrous male, loud of voice, hard of fist, childishly intent upon scoring the floor of the earth with chalk marks, within whose mystic boundaries human beings are penned, rigidly, separately, artificially.”[7] Such disloyalty must be protected in order not to produce other chalk marks, other mystico-academic boundaries. But feminism may indeed help to face what is threatening us because it dis-habituates, it dispels the anaesthesia that academic abstractions produce.
