The Editors: Kate O’Riordan is Lecturer in Media and Film Studies at the University of Sussex, United Kingdom. Her research interests center on the intersections of sexualized and gendered bodies and information and bio technologies.David J. Phillips is Associate Professor of Information Studies at the University of Toronto. He studies the political economy and social shaping of information and communication technologies, especially technologies of visibility, identification and surveillance.

«This richly textured, multi-sited collection explores the micropolitics and cultural realities of sex, gender and queer bodies/identities as they are mediated through new information and communications technologies. In articulating the specificities of queer(ing) technopractices on the worldwide web and off, the authors explore the limits and transformative possibilities of cyber/queer theorizing and practice to date. This book will be an invaluable resource for students of queer theory and of cultural and critical technology studies, both separately and in their generative/disruptive intersections.» (Lucy Suchman, Centre for Science Studies, Lancaster University, United Kingdom)
