Description

In Cyberfeminism Index, hackers, scholars, artists, and activists of all regions, races, and sexual orientations consider how humans might reconstruct themselves by way of technology. When learning about internet history, we are taught to focus on engineering, the military-industrial complex, and the grandfathers who created the architecture and protocol, but the internet is not only a network of cables, servers, and computers. It is an environment that shapes and is shaped by its inhabitants and their use. Cyberfeminism Index makes visible cyberfeminism’s long-ignored origins and its expansive legacy.

Cyberfeminism Index's design was scripted from a set of Google Docs and is set in all Arial. The book collects thousands of words and images downloaded from legacy websites—each image kept in its native resolution, no matter its size on the page. Neon green ink weaves throughout to reference the internet's screen vibrancy. The full index is printed on the cover.
