Wearable technology and apps promise to write our diaries for us. All smartphones measure our movements and location, and many devices do much more. Apps visualize and graph our days using this data that is gathered about us. This presentation will discuss how current automated diaries rewrite our idea of the subject in a digital age, and how they create new regimes of time, where we become subject to the measurements of our machines.

A partir des quatre traits principaux de la culture de l'écran posés par Bertrand Gervais dans sa conférence plénière du colloque de Figura 2014, nous entendons explorer les nouveaux régimes temporels induits par la pulsion scopique qui caractérise la culture de l'écran telle qu'elle est de plus en plus systématiquement mise en fiction.

This study is on the cyborgs and monster-figures that the Korean female artist Lee Bul has created in the late 1990s, from the perspective of feminism and posthumanism. I will first contemplate her early performances using her body, and investigate the meaning of her monsters and cyborgs in the relation of women, body, and technology in dislocated time and space. With the discussing about posthuman and posthumanism, I will consequently reveal Lee Bul’s monsters and cyborgs look forward to the posthuman subjectivity.
