VIDEO LINK: [Vimeo]
Jill Fellows will speak about how computer and digital assistant marketing and design reinforce binaries between subject and other, human and machine, man and woman, and mind and body. And how the installations in Mouthpiece challenge all these binaries, unsettling them in interesting ways.

Her areas of study are social epistemology (especially issues of trust, expertise and objectivity) and metaphysics (especially with regards to personal identity). Fellows has also taught at SFU, Quest University and UBC. Her book Gender, Sex and Tech! ; An Intersectional Feminist Guide was accompanied by a Podcast of the same title.
