Sonoridade eletrônica, arte tecnocientífica e gênero: uma abordagem teórico-prática

Abstract

Thefollowingthesisisatheoreticalandpracticalincursioninsoundart,or,morespecifically, in electronic sonority. We start the discussion through musicology and how it was affected by gender studies, from feminist perspectives to post-colonialism, transfeminism, Queer Theory, matters of intersectionality, etc. . We annalyse life and work of pioneer women in electronic music and also discuss carioca funk and noise as forms of activism. In order to further discuss artistic activism, we pay attention to the production of artists who work with technoscience as a platform, dialoguing with some of the queer activist community’s agenda. When talking about technoscience, we come up with concepts proposed by the sociology of science and contemporary philosophy, and comment life and work of pioneer scientists. We will also discuss some of the open source culture precepts, which were spread from telematic computer technologies to practices such as circuit bending and art as scientific research. To acknowledge our production as a form of open source practice, we detail along the last chapter some of the projects developed during our master’s degree research hoping they can be assembled by other people.
