[Air-L] Gender & Technology Videos

[Alexandra.HACHE at ec.europa.eu]

Dear all


I write on behalf of our activist research team located originally in Barcelona, Catalonia, www.donestech.net

We have been involved since 2006 in several researches about past and current relations between womyn and technologies, specifically ICT but not only, 
You can find a brief explanation of the project in English here: http://www.donestech.net/ca/contribution_to_book_coordinated_by_katharina

We develop several studies, made statistical research based on a survey, several maps and visualisations, audiovisual interviews, and also a documentary that we just released subtitled in 4 languages, English, Spanish, french and Catalan,
You can found it here: http://www.donestech.net/ca/el_documental_de_donestech_dexifrant_el_codi_lela_ja_esta_disponible_en_4_llengues

We use open source and free software tools, some have been develop by our own team, like the AREA tool, and the subvideo tool, both developed by our collaborator jaume nualart, just click on the right to select the language for the subtitles

Hope you will find it interesting
Alexandra Haché

Subject: [Air-L] Gender & Technology Videos

I'm teaching a new course this semester on gender & technology, and  
it's a general education course (or "Block II" -- social science --  
here at the U of Tulsa), so the students are mostly first and second  
year students.  I'll be gone for a week in October for AoIR, and I'm  
wondering if there are any good videos/DVDs that I could schedule for  
them to watch that week.

The topic that week is transportation technology (men, women, and  
automobiles, with readings from the Scharff book), but  that doesn't  
matter too much.  I'm interested in anything that's good.  The course  
looks primarily at home, office, and communication technologies, with  
the last part of the course devoted to new information and  
communication technologies.  In the internet communication course that  
I teach, I use Stephanie Tuszynski "IRL," so I don't also want to use  
it in this class.

Thanks in advance for any ideas!
