<nettime-ann> [call] ARTIFICIAL A.GENDER? ONLINE EXHIBITION

["sonya nielsen" <artsonya@yahoo.com.au>]

Dear All, 


Due to several people requesting extensions, the deadline 

for the Artificial A.gender? Exhibition has been extended

to the 25th October. 

 

ARTIFICIAL A.GENDER?  ONLINE EXHIBITION

 

The gendered machine? Will the human?s disposition for categorising
things cause a binary split for the machine as well? Or will the merging
of human and machine see a breakdown of gendered dichotomies? The
gendered machine is closer to our hearts than we can imagine, physically
we are already unconsciously becoming machines through pacemakers and
tooth fillings; the constant shift between the two states of reality and
virtual reality can either transcend the idea of the split between
human/machine or forge a new class of categories that determines the
gender of a machine.

 

We would like to see contributions: experimental e-poetry, new media art,
digital video that takes the above ideas and to transform them into your
own interpretation. 



 

Prizes will be awarded to first and second place, while the top ten will
be showcased in an online exhibition.
