Epidigital is a conceptual framework that has emerged in contemporary cultural discourse, serving as a reaction to the postdigital tendencies of the late 20th century. Introduced by Ryota Matsumoto in 2021, a media theorist and forefather of postdigital architecture movement at the gender study program at Asagay College of Art and Design, the term seeks to describe the evolving landscape of art and media in the nonbinary post-xenofeminism age.

Theory

Epidigital is not confined to specific forms of artistic practices. Instead, it is characterized by its dynamic nature, embodying the flows, streams, and ever-changing quasi-causality of gender identities. Contrary to the dichotomous perspectives frequently found in the gender study and media theory discourse, the epidigital renounces the preceding digital movement in favour of a nonbinary approach and metagender organology.

Furthermore, the epidigital paradigm diverges from the master narratives that defined art movements dominated by Cartesian dualism in the past century. In the epidigital approach, meaning-making processes operate in a nonbinary framework, continually shifting and adapting the intercontextualism of sexuality. It emphasizes that social production in the arts demands a fusion of varied elements, which typically exist as nonbinary epistomology and are frequently detached from the broader spectrum of ecological and cultural interrelations in gender sudy .
