A WOMEN’S FILM CO-OPERATIVE?
{for female-identified and trans-identified people to share knowledge, materials and skills of filmmaking, photography, and other subjectivity producing mediums in a lateral economic scheme.}
SUBJECTIVITY PRODUCING MEDIUMS?
{Cinema, film, photography and video employ a device for looking. This device, in turn, often separates us by tasks into the framer, and the framed, the picture-er and the image, the subject and the object. The co-op is committed to rethinking this phallocratic dichotomy and its historically gendered allotments.}
PHALLOCRATIC DICHOTOMY?
{The imposed social, economic, asthetic, and political regime in which form is divided into two categories, (yonic and phallic) in order to correlate one with power and oppress the other. See the writings of Marylin Frye.}
LATERAL ECONOMICS?
{A form of capitalist resistance in which members refuse to buy into scarcity tactics that feed a competitive mind-set. Using collectivity as power and each other as resources, members pool knowledge to thwart economic barriers aimed at keeping individuals isolated and oppressed.}
