Drawing on science and technology studies and feminist theory, iMedia examines the gendering of imedia or smart technologies such as smart phones and Google glass. Kember puts forward a lively manifesto for refiguring imedia, in reaction to what she identifies as a tendency to celebrate the existence of these often sexist objects.
