Feminist Hardware speculates on technologies that can spark debates about fair trade, ethical, biodegradable hardware in the spirit of environmental justice. We build circuits that utilise traditional craft and collaborative knowledge as an artistic practice to promote decolonial thinking. Our PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) are made from wild clay, mined in the forest and fired at a Danube Island barbecue site. A project by Patrícia J. Reis and students from her course.
