The contemporary institution is increasingly policed and maintained by
technical methods and systems, such as management databases, immigration
controls, and electronic barriers/access points. This practical workshop
will explore how gender, care and safety is embodied in software based
systems by tracing connections between personal and institutional
practices of safety and care. It will use embodied mapping practices to
bring out collective experiences, and group experiments/interventions to
create potential responses to them
This workshop is a parallel session of the conference "Institutions, Politics,
Performance" that is taking place from 24 to 28 September 2015 in Athens.
The talks will be in English.
Everyone is welcome.
