The Current Issue

of International Journal of Feminist Technoscience gives tribute to the work of Jean Baudrillard, on the themeVirtually (Un)Real. In this new world order information technology is on the move in all kinds of fabrics and tissues of life. This theme wish to put loci on how we can employ Baudrillard’s thoughts on the real and the virtual so to more fully, or unintelligibly, understand our situatedness in technology based contexts. If we are increasingly becoming “relieved of the real by the virtual itself”, as Baudrillard wrote (2001:119), how can this bring about a change in the way we think of and live in language, the real and the virtual? With the pleasure of thought in mind, this issue possibly has the intention of giving a counteracting figure to the idea of technology (re)formations as being a stark duality.
