Sexyshock is a communication laboratory that works on political
language. To do so Sexyshock have use, also the hacking way,
destructuring words and languages, mixing and matching situations and
concept and practices; for reinventing the political language and for
being more incisive on a vast level of communication. Sexyshock was the
first sexyshop managed by women in Italy (in an independent social
center in Bologna), but it is also a hyper-place scattered with links, a
circuit with which to inract that brings to other circuits. A place
where sexuality is central cause, it is the zero degree of connection's
desire. In the gender, beyond the gender. The Sexyshock' women use a
collective name: "Betty". Expressing the desire to shut down with the
need of auto - agency.

Women Hackers Reportage (Berlin, 2005)
Video on women hackers realized by the team of Tracks Magazine/Arte TV
in occasion of the "Hack.it.art, Hacktivism in the Context of Art and
Media in Italy" exhibition (Berlin, 2005).
"In our good old man cyberspace, it should be recognized that the image
of the women is one-sided. Their body generally plays a part much more
important than their head. It looks still sadder in the hacker scene,
the avant-garde of the data-processing culture. Tracks went to the
annual meeting of Chaos Computer Club, where the elite of the hacking
exchanges and shares the newest knowledge. 98% of the participants were
men. But there are some exceptions..."
