Old Boys Network

initiated by Cornelia Sollfrank in summer 1997. OBN organized the 'First Cyberfeminist International' @ hybrid workspace, dx, Kassel, September 1997; publication of the reader 'First Cyberfeminist International', presented at ars electronica 1998; in cooperation with Tech-Women, organization of the 'next Cyberfeminist International', March 1999, Rotterdam; publication of the reader documentation in September 1999 (http://www.obn.org/reader); currently OBN is planning the publication of a book on Cyberfeminism together with Autonomedia (http://www.obn.org/book)

OBN consists of a core-group of currently 8 women who take responsibility for administrative and organisational tasks, and an associated worldwide network. The core-group members are Cornelia Sollfrank, Claudia Reiche, Helene von Oldenburg, Faith Wilding, Yvonne Volkart, Verena Kuni, Julianne Pierce and Susanne Ackers. (http://www.obn.org/we/index.html) OBN is dedicated to Cyberfeminism, and OBN's concern is to build spaces in which Cyberfeminists can research, experiment, create, communicate and act.

The infrastructure OBN provides consists of a Cyberfeminist server, the old_boys mailing list and Real-Life meetings. All this activities have the purpose to give a contextualized presence to different artistic, theoretical and activist formulations under the umbrella of Cyberfeminism. (http://www.obn.org/faq.htm)
