Virtual Futures 1995

Cyberevolution

The virtual revolution is also a sexual revolution. All New Gen plays with cyberspace amazons, and the Puppet Mistress weaves webs on the net. What are the virtualfutures ofgender and sexuality? What happens to masculinity and feminity as the Cyberflesh Girlmonsters come on line? Can patriarchy survive the emergence of cyberspace? Is anything straight in a non- linear world? Does the cyborg have a sex? Is a new sexual politics – or post-politics of some kind – gathering pace in the midst of the digital revolution?

Liana Borghi, Pat Cadigan, Gwynelh Jones, Francesca da Rimini, Josephine Starts, Sadie Plant (chair)
