What does it mean to be embodied online? What are the conditions of cybersubjectivity? In Material Virtualities, Jenny Sundn explores the rarely acknowledged borderland between typists and textual bodies, speaking and writing, and physicality and imagination in online encounters. Through careful ethnographic investigations of a textbased virtual world called WaterMOO, Sundn shows how texts, bodies, and machines are linked together in ways that demand a new understanding of the writing subject. Drawing on contemporary feminist and queer theory, she questions the opposition between disembodied, hightech masculinity and embodied, earthbound femininity, insisting on the need for a radical materialization of cybercultural studies that discloses the virtual as itself embodied.
