Notfoundon:About
‘We are here to give birth to identities over and over again. Codes are binary, people are not.’ — HOT BODIES-CHOIR Brussels, Not Found On co-writing (2019)
This site was created as part of Not Found On — a collaborative and co-learning research focused on how feminist queer bodies share knowledge online. The project touches on recording communities, online privacy, internet structures, open source tools, do-it-yourself (DIY) culture and feminist co-writing. The intention is to spark interest and galvanise participation.
So far the project has been developed through a series of workshops held during 2019 in Brussels, Liverpool and Rotterdam, both via open call and through invitations. The content of this book is a snapshot of where we are at with these discussions and their supporting research. The Not Found On project consists of three components: in-real-life (IRL) meetings, a publication and this site.
This project is created with, by and for feminist queer bodies.
Welcome.

‘On the most general level, we suggest that caring be viewed as a species activity that includes everything that we do to maintain, continue, and repair our “world” so that we can live in it as well as possible. That world includes our bodies, our selves and our environment, all of which we seek to interweave in a complex, life-sustaining web.’
— Joan Tronto, Moral Boundaries (1993)
