Faces (online community)

Faces is an international online community of women who share an interest in digital media arts.

[4][7] The Faces community has continued to grow and remains instrumental in generating cyberfeminist theory and critique, creating both offline and online spaces for discussion around this topic.

[5] It is recognised as part of the first wave of networked arts communities along with such email lists as Nettime, Rhizome, Fibreculture, and _empyre_.

[4] As of 2018, the Faces email list constituted an international community of more than 400 members, with exhibitions and meetings organised within the framework of established art and media festivals and events (such as Ars Electronica, Transmediale, and ISEA) as well as through independent events such as the 20th anniversary of Faces (2017).

In 2003, a grant from the Austrian Ministry of Culture enabled the creation of a Faces website, which launched in 2004.
