Glitch Feminismus

Glitch Feminismus

Legacy Russell beschreibt wie Ethnizität, Klasse, Gender und Sexualität Identitätsbildungen affizieren. Der Glitch als technische Fehlfunktion, Bruchstelle im Interface, Unbehagen an und in der Maschine, wird zum Ausgangspunkt um singuläre Identitäten in kollektive Vernetzungsformen umzugestalten.
