Filmmaking as women: Glitch Feminism ICA Infrequencies

Part 3. Discussions from filmmakers responding to what Legacy Russell’s Glitch Feminism idea and how they use it in their practice.

‘Being a black woman in the world means a lot is expected and asked of you… the place I can set my strongest boundaries is in the digital realm’ ‘Apps like Natural Cycle where suddenly we’re using technology to liberate our bodies from traditional medicine and that in a scewed way maybe is a form of cyber-feminism and enters into that world’
Featured short films by artists Salome Asega, Ain Bailey, Anaïs Duplan, Caspar Heinemann, shawné michaelain holloway, Zarina Muhammad, E. Jane, Jenn Nkiru, Tabita Rezaire and Victoria Sin. 
Glitch Feminism embraces the causality of 'error' and turns the gloomy implication of 'glitch' on its ear by acknowledging that an error in a social system disturbed by economic, racial, social, sexual, cultural stratification, and the imperialist wrecking-ball of globalization—processes that continue to enact violence on all bodies – may not be 'error' at all, but rather a much-needed erratum.
Recorded 17 November 2017.
