SUMMARY:Book Launch Event | Night Sweats: Cyberfeminist Practices
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the new book launch with the authors\, Hyla Willis and Irina Aristarkhova! Stay tuned for more details! Time: Oct. 6\, 5 pm – 7 pm Location: Rabbit Hole (201 S 1st Street\, Ann Arbor)   About the book: Night Sweats: Cyberfeminist Practices intervenes in this moment of rapid biotechnological development and international political turmoil with thought-provoking\, creative\, and justice-oriented essays on art and life: opting out of the sludge and consent theatre presented by standard “terms and conditions”; creating plant-assisted reproductive technologies (pARTs) such as indecision trees; practicing compassionate inquiry; and becoming a cyborg-elder. Refusing the authoritarian turn and backlash against reproductive\, LGBTQIA+\, and racial justice movements\, its authors and contributors—artists\, writers\, scholars\, designers\, activists\, and educators—draw on the twenty-five years of cyberfeminist art work from the subRosa art collective\, as well as Black\, postcolonial\, and environmental feminisms. The overall motto of the book is “we will save ourselves\,” with examples taken from critical and revisionist histories of alchemy\, the automation of writing systems\, and reproductive mutual aid. In doing so\, the authors develop new analyses of (cyber)feminist contributions to bioart\, tactical media\, gender\, women’s\, and sexuality studies\, media studies and communication\, technoscience studies and STS\, durational art\, and performance studies.
