The internet is not only a network of cables, servers, and computers. It is an environment that shapes and is shaped by its inhabitants and their use. Edited by designer, professor, and researcher Mindy Seu, CYBERFEMINISM INDEX includes more than 700 short entries of radical techno-critical activism, academic articles, hackerspaces, software education, net art, and more. Both a vital introduction for laypeople and a robust resource guide for educators, CYBERFEMINISM INDEX—an anti-canon, of sorts—celebrates and makes visible cyberfeminism’s long-ignored origins and its expansive legacy.

CYBERFEMINISM INDEX is published by Inventory Press and distributed by Distributed Art Publishers and generously funded by the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts, Rhizome, and Feral File, and is made possible in part by the Rutgers University Research Council, Pratt Institute, Pioneer Works, and Cita Press.

Designer and technologist Mindy Seu joins artist and computer programmer Lauren Lee McCarthy and writer, editor, and curator Nora Khan to discuss the release of Cyberfeminism Index.

Co-presented with the UCLA Design Media Arts Department. The next tour dates for the book presentation can be found on the official website: https://tour.cyberfeminismindex.com/
