Introduction
I want to examine the connection between cyberfeminism, the aesthetics of cyborg, and Taiwan/Asian queer communities. Within the cyborg concept, there’s a focus on non-binary opposition and the ambiguity of identity and boundaries. Queer and non-binary people, liberate gender, break free from binary-centered opposition, and actively embrace a future of diversity, heterogeneity, and hybrid identities. Moreover, I am interested in exploring cyberfeminism within an Asian context. Modern queer and gender spectrums have already broken down the traditional binary concept of gender; could there be even more possibilities? Do we still need this or similar myths and metaphors?
❣ Chapter I. Cyborg Aesthetics and Queer Identity
In this chapter I want to explore how cyborg,cyberfeminsim aesthetic enhance the understanding of queer and non-binary identites, particularly in Asia contexts.
- How do artistic representations (e.g., fashion, wearable tech, performance art) visualize and express queer experiences through the cyborg?
- Could certain materials or digital elements connect to the regeneration and self-healing parts of cyborg concept ?
- How have cyborg aesthetics been interpreted in the works of Asian queer artists? How do they transform cyberfeminism and cyborgs to reflect local cultural narratives (e.g., myths, folklore, or traditional symbols)?
❣ Chapter II. Stories from the Asian queer communities
I want to collect stories from others within these communities to build a broader understanding.
- What are the unique perspectives, experiences, and challenges faced by non-binary Asians living in the Western?
- What are the parallels between feminist and queer struggles against systems of control (e.g., patriarchy, capitalism, and heteronormativity) within the Taiwanese or Asian context?
❣ Chapter III. Reflection
I aim to explore the relationships between my research and practice, linking to the projects. My focus is on integrating the aesthetics of Taiwan and queerness with cyberfeminism to create the cyborg and the imagined world. Additionally, find the connection of cyberfeminism to sustainability through practices like repair, modification and mending, emphasizing themes of regeneration and self-healing.
Mode of address
In this thesis, I will use a first-person narration to share my personal experience and perspectives as a non-binary queer person. This mode of address also create a sense of intimacy and authenticity, inviting readers to engage with the research on a personal level. It aligns with ethos of storytelling and self-representation central to these communities.
