Media pioneer, Allucquere Rosanne ‘Sandy’ Stone has established herself as one of the most prominent trans* theorists of our time. As the sound engineer for the first lesbian separatist and feminist music label - Olivia Records - she charted a path for all women and gender fluid people in technology and interdisciplinary practice from the 1970s to today. In this event, Sandy will discuss her upcoming documentary film, Girl Island: The Sandy Stone Story, with director Marjorie Vecchio.
Sandy Stone is an audio engineer, media artist, and trans* theorist. She is the subject of the documentary film Girl Island: The Sandy Stone Story, which features animation by award-winning graphic novelist Bishkah Som and interviews with Donna Haraway, Susan Stryker, Kate Bornstein, and Chris Kraus. Sandy’s essay, “The Empire Strikes Back: A Posttranssexual Manifesto,” contributed to the founding of transgender studies programs in academia.
