wow! this is so cool and so many things to unpack. My group and I wondered if this would make the baby a cyborg, or maybe a tryborg. Especially if they are not choosing this environment by sometimes they might […]

I never really thought about the idea that when we are on zoom, we are looking at ourselves a lot more than we would usually do. This is true in my case; I am hyper-aware of how I look on zoom calls. I guess it […]

Tue, 22 Jun 2021 21:58:27 -0400

Thank you so much for sharing this. I love this representation of non-binary that is mixed with technology. I think that by rejecting binaries of what is male/female, Arca is trying to create a new form of being […]

This is so interesting. Thank you for sharing, Catherine! I would like to know more about this robot dog and how it works, to know if it is a good idea or not to add them. However, I don’t really find it creepy or […]

Hi Melinda, thank you so much for sharing this documentary! I will definitely watch it in the near future. It is incredibly sad how something that should be doing public good can be so damaging for communities […]

Hi Tess, thank you for such an interesting blog! I am also surprised by the number of people my age (24) who have plastic surgery! And I remember the first time one of my peers got plastic surgery was when we were […]

This topic is so interesting to me. Marketing campaigns really do take over movements that might have had a chance to make people feel better about themselves. I looked up the hashtag #bodypositivity on Instagram, […]
