journals and collections of essays

Antithesis is an interdisciplinary journal of critical theory and creative
cultural production. It is Australia's longest standing postgraduate
journal and is published by University of Melbourne, the leading research
institution

Volume 11, 'SEX 2000' seeks to explore the various terrains through which
'sex' might remain or become both intelligible and possible. This project
can be realised through a consideration of libidinal investments across
visual and discursive practices, corporeal enactments and virtual
identifications. Accordingly, these provisional locations will imply a
constitutive and reflexive negativity or absence, in the form of
banalities, repulsions and failures.

FEMSPEC, an interdisciplinary feminist journal dedicated to critical
and creative works in the realms of science fiction, fantasy, magical
realism, surrealism, myth, folklore and other supernatural genres, is
planning a special issue on gender and technology in science fiction
film. Possible topics, though not limited to these, include:
      *technology and the cultural construction of feminine/masculine roles
      *the technologically produced body
      *technology as a system of representation
      *technology and the construction of social categories of
difference, such as race, gender, sexuality, and class
      *forms of resistance within/through/despite technology
      *cybersexuality
