Digital assemblages

"‘!!! technoloffspring !!!’ = animated films of absurdist technological beings birthed from ‘IntertwinedHerStories’ originating from the cross-section of *-gender-*-technology-*-lens-based-media-*-the human body-*-caregiving-*. These animations propose a reimagining of what ‘technology’ might mean in the context of an absurdist caregiving society and originate from an ‘entangled constellation of caregiving’ as subjects of care and caregivers themselves. They are digital assemblages of altered and combined imagery, found and developed, that assemble linkages between creative (technological and scientific) work of women from the present and past.”
