#2 Reshape Reality – Questioning Claims of Neutrality for Inclusive TechnoFutures

Donna Haraway, ‘Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium. FemaleMan_Meets_OncoMouse Feminism and Technoscience’; Donna J. Haraway, Thyrza Goodeve, Routledge; 2. Edition (2018)

The detailed overview lecture on Haraway’s life and work given by the speaker Felix Grewe at the last colloquium left many questions open. We are therefore delighted to have him on board to continue our exciting discussion. All interested parties are cordially invited to attend, including those who were not present in March.

In order to find a good starting point for the discussion and to pick up where we left off, we will read Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium FemaleMan_Meets_OncoMouse Feminism and Technoscience; by Donna J. Haraway and Thyrza Goodeve together for this meeting, in particular the introduction and the first chapter. The book is available in the university library. A copy can also be borrowed from us on request. We highly recommend reading ‘The Promises of Monsters: A Regenerative Politics for Inappropriate/d Others’ from the anthology ‘Cybersexualities: A Reader in Feminist Theory, Cyborgs and Cyberspace’.
