Web Papers 3
Below find a catalogue of the third set of webpapers emerging from Computer Science/English/Film Studies/Gender &Sexuality 257, a course offered at Bryn Mawr College. Students are writing here about what issues seem most critical to them in the representation (in film, novels, graphic novels or other new media) of gender and technology.
Take a look around, and feel warmly welcome to respond in the comment area available for each paper. What strikes, intrigues, puzzles you…what, among your reactions, might be of interest or use to the writer, or others in the class, or others who–exploring the internet–might be in search of a thoughtful conversation about the shape and sound of the engendering of technology today?
