IMAGINING FEMINIST INTERFACES (2019)

Design and software have historically served existing power structures. It’s not an accident that our technologies that function as “caregivers” or “secretaries” are designed to have female voices. How can we use speculative design to imagine software that is not only less sexist, subservient, or passive, but also reflects principles of consent, agency, embodied learning, and plurality? This zine explores what it means to design feminist interactions.
