Simulation and the Gender Link.pdf
This work surveys the continuance
of the cyberfeminist critique of oppression using
playful, but powerful, self-expression in both the sensual realm of the
body and the concrete world of the built environment, as well as the
creative potential of the virtual. This paper proposes that we look to
contemporary feminist artists working in simulation and game technologies
to see an opening beyond the rubric of shooter and military type game
experiences. This is uniquely reflected in the work of contemporary
feminist artist/researchers, Stephanie Rothenberg, Anne Marie Schleiner, Sylvia Rusanka,
Kathleen Ruiz, and others. Each
artist uses simulation technology and/or game art to show ways towards more
potent openings to the fuller spectrum of what it is to be human in a
technological culture. Theoretical, philosophical, cultural and media
theorists such as Julia Kristeva, Donna Haraway, and Luce Irigaray, who addressed these issues in the late 20th
century, are featured.
