Ladybeard magazine is a feminist publication which takes the form and format of a glossy magazine, but revolutionises the content.

<H2>TECHNICAL ISSUES</H2>
Cross over from the physical to the virtual world. Our series begins with an intimate evening exploring a new generation of female artists who are making waves in digital art. A gooey, glitchy, multi-sensory screening, Technical Issues will blur boundaries between the real and the unreal: immerse yourself in hyper sexualised 60s VR; digital healing activism; re-visioned video games; and new, purposefully graphic renderings of the female form. Featuring work by: 
TABITA REZAIRE
Tabita Rezaire is a video artist, health-tech-politics practitioner and Kemetic/ Kundalini Yoga teacher based in Johannesburg. Rezaire’s practices unearth the possibilities of decolonial healing through the politics of technology. Navigating architectures of power - online and offline - her work tackles the pervasive matrix of coloniality and its effects on identity, technology, sexuality, health and spirituality. GEORGIE ROXBY-SMITH
Georgie Roxby Smith works across a range of disciplines exploring new pathways between virtual and physical worlds. Employing a variety of tools – including 3D graphics, live performance, shared virtual and gaming spaces, installation and projection – these works explore the increasingly blurred border between identity, materiality, reality, virtuality and fantasy in contemporary culture. Since 2012 Georgie has been focusing on gender representation and violence in video games, particularly that directed towards women on screen and in online communities. JOCELYN ANQUETIL
Jocelyn Anquetil is a visual artist whose work explores the ever-blurring lines between live experiences, online and digital media, both conceptually and in process. Surreal and futuristic, yet uncanny; Jocelyn’s hyper-saturated work is heavily influenced by her intrigue in the hyper-sexualisation and portrayal of female characters in science fiction. Enter the immersive VR world of Jocelyn’s creation; exploring identity, sexuality, competitiveness and jealousy in the age of social media. NATALIA STUYK
Natalia Stuyk is a video artist and director. Her work is characterised by over-saturated colours, rhythmic motion and infinite loops, merging 2D and 3D techniques with photographic elements. Stuyk is currently working on interactive projects and installations, creating multi-sensory experiences that embrace new technologies and move away from traditional digital video. 
LUCY HARDCASTLE
Lucy Hardcastle is an interdisciplinary designer and digital artist. Her work focuses on tactility, visual illusions and sensual aesthetics through digital rendered pieces, sculpture, set design and moving image. Her pieces highlight tensions between physical and virtual worlds and experiences, and aims to reconnect users and viewers with the material world through symbolism and metaphor. Her current projects focus on bridging the highly digital and physical aspects of her practice to produce immersive experiential pieces.
JESSY JETPACKS
A maximalist in referencing and emotional registers, Jetpacks works across many mediums, currently focusing on video, digital works, installation, virtual reality, music, and 3D printing. Her work is poignant, provocative and engaging, with a dark sense of humour and a sometime belligerent vulnerability. Themes and interests range from the global political to the fundamental and private human condition – advocacy, poetry, and philosophy all finding their place. Consistently challenging and forward-thinking, Jetpack’s parodies of popular/internet culture and the modern relationships forged within it are always accessible and always evocative.
SESSA OMOREGIE
Sessa Omoregie is a digital content creative and artist based in London. She is the founder and director of Camgirls Project, the interactive, collaborative project for today's Venus - discussing selfies as art, representation, body image and what it means to be seen online.
Followed by a panel discussion on 'Female Landscapes: Reclaiming the Digital Sphere'
