Berlin has a rich and long-standing tradition of women engaged in
the fields of media arts, media activism and digital culture. Today
over half of Berlin's independent project spaces and initiatives
revolving around the themes of tech, media and digital culture are
run by women. A broad range of female curators and activists
continue to shape net politics - initiating independent programmes,
hosting events and leading research at Berlin's universities.
Despite this large female contingent, and in a city where the
workforce is generally evenly distributed, it is at odds that the
theoretical discourse on media art and net activism, executive roles
and directorships, as well panelists and participants at events and
festivals, are still male-dominated. In a forward-thinking city like
Berlin, this ongoing gap should be addressed so that the wider
fields of media arts and activism are fully inclusive of the
multitude of female skills and viewpoints on offer.<br>
<br>
At this event, SUPERMARKT highlights and showcases a selection of
the women who have played an important role in shaping the profile
of Berlin as a digital culture city. We will learn more about their
history, career paths, and the narratives of their work and life.
Ten inspiring women in the field will join us, and answer questions
against the backdrop of their own lives and careers, including what
drives them to continue the work they do, what have been the crucial
moments of their careers, and who are their professional mentors,
support networks, and inspirations. This evening will provide an
opportunity to get to know this community, share inspirations,
identify trending themes in the field, and gauge both common
resources and grounds for future collaborations. Whilst the focus of
this event will be on the diversity of Berlin's female media art
community, of course anyone is invited to attend.<br>
