IMMA - Artists Discussion Full Stack Feminism, Art, Intersectionality & The Digital

Thursday, July 6, 2023 - 17:30 to 19:15
Irish Museum of Modern Art

The aim of the Full Stack Feminism in Digital Humanities project is to enact intersectional feminism across the ‘Full Stack’ of digital development: addressing how inequality is reproduced from the level of code to the level of representation. As part of the collaborative actions of the Full Stack Feminism project, this talk brings together artists to consider one of the project’s main research questions which concerns the opportunities and challenges of decentering traditional voices in digital art and humanities. We explore this critical question through the practices of our invited speakers: Yarli Allison (interdisciplinary artist), Lauren Kelly (performance-based artist with a socially engaged practice) and Roibí O’Rua (multimedia artist and self-proclaimed popstar) alongside discussion chair Laurence Hill (digital art curator and doctoral researcher on curatorial activism). The event comprises artists’ presentations and a moderated panel discussion, which will open out to consider the wider ecology of the digital arts and humanities within and against which this event takes place. Jeneen Naji, Principal Investigator of the Full Stack Feminism in Digital Humanities research project, and Associate Professor in Digital Media, Maynooth University will introduce this two-year collaborative project that brings together artists, communities, coders, archivists, and scholars, to develop digital objects, interfaces, archives, and tools that can work to amplify marginalised voices
