Digibodies: digital bodies in digital space, characters made of bits.
Perfect digibodies: Longitudinal, hyper-rich collections of data which make up digital identities or replicas online of the people from whom the data originate.
the data are sent out and published with the best intentions for the sake of research not questionning the origin of research.
WHY did women went through such violent performative processes.
