Feminist Futures is an ongoing participatory art project that advocates for just and diverse futures of the Internet. In workshops, participants discuss the current issues of the Internet, and then re-imagine them through stories, comics, or poems. What results is an open-source archive of stories that provide strategies for change (www.feministfutures.net). In this workshop, we map current issues on the Internet from feminist perspectives. Then, together with the attendees, we ask critical questions and create alternative visions for a feminist Internet.
