Matrix was an Australian feminist artist group who were active from 1991 to
1997, by Josephine
Starrs, Julianne Pierce, Francesca da Rimini and Virginia
Barratt. Their activist
practice was concerned primarily with women's role in technology and art,
specifically taking issue with "the gendered dominance and control of the
new technologies" and
exploring, "the construction of social space, identity and sexuality in
cyberspace".
They
are the origin of cyber feminism. In concept, the cyber feminists believes in cyborg
conciousness, they saw the new breakthrough of Feminism with the development of new technology. Based on my own knowledge, I
think they are very sensitive to the new technology, they saw the trend of
decentralize, as well as a reduction in male physical
demands and an increase in social competence requirements. Especially in 1990's.
