  • Struction of the Feminine/Masculine Dichotomy in Westworld

    Struction of the Feminine/Masculine Dichotomy in Westworld

    WiN: The EAAS Women’s Network Journal Issue 2 (2020) Skin-Deep Gender: Posthumanity and the De(con)struction of the Feminine/Masculine Dichotomy in Westworld Amaya Fernández Menicucci ABSTRACT: This article addresses the ways in which gender configurations are used as representations of the process of self-construction of both human and non-human characters in Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy’s series Westworld, produced by HBO and first launched in 2016. In particular, I explore the extent to which the process of genderization is deconstructed when human and non-human identities merge into a posthuman reality that is both material and virtual. In Westworld, both cyborg and human characters understand gender as embodiment, enactment, repetition, and codified communication. Yet, both sets of characters eventually face a process of disembodiment when their bodies are digitalized, which challenges the very nature of identity in general and gender identity in particular. Placing this digitalization of human identity against Donna Haraway’s cyborg theory and Judith Butler’s citational approach to gender identification, a question emerges, which neither Posthumanity Studies nor Gender Studies can ignore: can gender identities survive a process of disembodiment? Such, indeed, is the scenario portrayed in Westworld: a world in which bodies do not matter and gender is only skin-deep. KEYWORDS: Westworld; gender; posthumanity; embodiment; cyborg The cyborg is a creature in a post-gender world. The cyborg is also the awful apocalyptic telos of the ‘West’s’ escalating dominations . (Haraway, A Cyborg Manifesto 8) Revolution in a Post-Gender, Post-Race, Post-Class, Post-Western, Posthuman World The diegetic reality of the HBO series Westworld (2016-2018) opens up the possibility of a posthuman existence via the synthesis of individual human identities and personalities into algorithms and a post-corporeal digital life.
  • Beyond Westworld

    Beyond Westworld

    “We Don’t Know Exactly How They Work”: Making Sense of Technophobia in 1973 Westworld, Futureworld, and Beyond Westworld Stefano Bigliardi Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane - Morocco Abstract This article scrutinizes Michael Crichton’s movie Westworld (1973), its sequel Futureworld (1976), and the spin-off series Beyond Westworld (1980), as well as the critical literature that deals with them. I examine whether Crichton’s movie, its sequel, and the 1980s series contain and convey a consistent technophobic message according to the definition of “technophobia” advanced in Daniel Dinello’s 2005 monograph. I advance a proposal to develop further the concept of technophobia in order to offer a more satisfactory and unified interpretation of the narratives at stake. I connect technophobia and what I call de-theologized, epistemic hubris: the conclusion is that fearing technology is philosophically meaningful if one realizes that the limitations of technology are the consequence of its creation and usage on behalf of epistemically limited humanity (or artificial minds). Keywords: Westworld, Futureworld, Beyond Westworld, Michael Crichton, androids, technology, technophobia, Daniel Dinello, hubris. 1. Introduction The 2016 and 2018 HBO series Westworld by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy has spawned renewed interest in the 1973 movie with the same title by Michael Crichton (1942-2008), its 1976 sequel Futureworld by Richard T. Heffron (1930-2007), and the short-lived 1980 MGM TV series Beyond Westworld. The movies and the series deal with androids used for recreational purposes and raise questions about technology and its risks. I aim at an as-yet unattempted comparative analysis taking the narratives at stake as technophobic tales: each one conveys a feeling of threat and fear related to technological beings and environments.
  • California Supreme Court Denies Review of Lucent, BOE Addresses

    California Supreme Court Denies Review of Lucent, BOE Addresses

    External Multistate Tax Alert May 5, 2016 California Supreme Court denies review of Lucent, BOE addresses refunds Overview On January 20, 2016, the California Supreme Court denied the California State Board of Equalization’s (BOE) petition for review1 of Lucent Technologies, Inc. v. Board of Equalization,2 a California Court of Appeals ruling involving the sales and use tax treatment of switch-specific software programs. In response to the California Supreme Court’s denial of review, Randy Ferris, Chief Counsel of the California State BOE, issued a Chief Counsel Memorandum (Chief Counsel Memo) discussing the following topics: (1) the BOE’s interpretation of the holdings set forth in Nortel3 and Lucent, as well as their application under three different scenarios; (2) the BOE Legal Department’s recommended approach to implementing the Lucent holding; and (3) the BOE’s potential approach to addressing the California sales and use tax treatment for embedded and pre- loaded software under Lucent.4 Moreover, during a BOE meeting held on March 30, 2016, the BOE heard oral testimony from the BOE Legal Department Staff regarding the BOE Legal Department’s recommended approach to implementing the Lucent holding (BOE Meeting). This Tax Alert incorporates information from our previous Alert involving the Lucent case,5 summarizes the recent Chief Counsel Memo and BOE Meeting, as well as provides some related taxpayer considerations. Summary of Chief Counsel Memo In accordance with the holdings set forth in both Nortel and Lucent, the Chief Counsel Memo outlines three different factual scenarios, along with the BOE’s recommended sales and use tax treatment under each scenario.

    Verizon Wireless Selects Nortel Networks for US$500 Million Network Buildout Submitted By: Pleon Wednesday, 12 April 2000

    Verizon Wireless Selects Nortel Networks for US$500 Million Network Buildout Submitted by: Pleon Wednesday, 12 April 2000 Wireless, Optical Investment Paves Way for Expanded Capacity and Coverage to Meet Strong Customer Demand NEW YORK - Moving quickly to fulfil the bold promise of its new national brand, Verizon Wireless today announced it signed a letter of intent to purchase an estimated US$500 million in wireless and optical equipment from Nortel Networks* [NYSE/TSE: NT]. This planned agreement is expected to provide significant savings to Verizon Wireless' network infrastructure costs. Nortel Networks and Verizon Wireless expect to enter into a two-year agreement that will enable Verizon Wireless to increase capacity and coverage in key markets and offer high-capacity, cost-effective and reliable wireless services to its customers nationwide. The agreement also is expected to include optical transport and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switches for major metropolitan markets, and additional equipment for expansion of an existing microwave backbone network. Last week, Verizon Wireless announced one of the wireless industry's largest planned capital investments. By the end of 2000, the company will invest more than US$3 billion in its nationwide network to further expand its digital footprint and increase capacity for wireless voice and data services. This investment will involve the properties of GTE Wireless (based on the close of the Bell Atlantic and GTE Corporation merger). "Continued investment in our CDMA network will enable Verizon Wireless to efficiently and cost-effectively expand its CDMA network to support today's subscriber growth and meet future growth forecasts," said Richard Lynch, executive vice president and chief technical officer of Verizon Wireless.

As consumer products become more high tech, the line between computers and traditional devices has blurred. Even basic products, such as toothbrushes, alarm clocks, doorbells, smartphones, cameras, home security systems, printers and copiers now include technical software that enables new functionality options for the device. As a general principle, tangible personal property, but not intangibles or services, is subject to California Sales and Use Tax.1 Software "embedded" into a product has value distinct from the value of the rest of the device and that distinct (intangible) value is not subject to sales tax. On the heels of two recent taxpayer victories in the California Court of Appeal relating to taxation of software, this article discusses current developments on how to treat such embedded software for California sales (and use) tax purposes.
