Technodrag

We propose the term "technodrag" by combining 'techno'(technology) with 'drag' as a cultural practice traversing stereotypical expressions of assigned gender. This term reveals that when living with gendered technologies and artificial constructs, and even when doing nothing at all, we are already technodrags, as binary gender performance itself is a technical action. The lecture introduces the concept of "technodrag" while presenting it through a drag performance. Following on-site discussion among members reflect on how the concept of "technodrag" can develop in the future.
