sites and satrapi









[self-portrait as cyborg, aref adib]

these websites i came across recently, and found interesting:


doing beyond gender
[not much archival richness yet, but promising]
cittaslow international
aref adib's photography site
alternative film guide

ps: go buy marjane satrapi's complete persepolis... brilliant... gloria steinem has this to say about d book:
"
You've never seen anything like Persepolis - the intimacy of a memoir, the irresistibility of a comic book, and the political depth of the conflict between fundamentalism and democracy. Marjane Satrapi may have given us a new genre"

pps: also go read donna haraway's celebrated piece - a cyborg manifesto...
