Utopian Transmissions

Oh girl, look.

Techno-Feminist Utopia brings you regular feminist documentary (once every month), with visually-inspired speculation that draws its influences from drag culture, queer theory, Continental philosophy, political activism, radical feminism, and visual & performing art (Alexandria Brown is a painter, Gianna Love does dance and performance art).
We are currently working on our next episode, which we are thinking will be about religion. How do spiritual beliefs affect social structures like the nuclear family? How does religious belief affect a woman’s relationship to beauty? Cosmetic surgery? Can polytheism offer alternatives? Matriarchal religion? Is there such a thing as feminist monotheism with a Male god-figure? How can we reinterpret mythologies productively and affirmatively rather than simply rejecting them? It will be gorgeous.
ALSO –We really want feedback! Constructive criticism, profanity, worship — etc., please tell us what you think of our project! Tear it down!
We won’t be offended. We promise.
For those of you who missed our first episode, which was on, among other things the pressures of ‘passing’ faced by trans women — follow the link above to visit our channel, which is also available directly at http://www.youtube.com/technofeministutopia
