الوصف: Earlier research states that music listening at home is mainly steered by men. It seems that gender patterns steer possibilities in relation to music, which is in line with how power relations are constituting the Anthropocene. An earlier interview study suggested that musical, and to some extent digital embodied experience, constitute crucial preconditions for how a streaming service is used for meaning. The interviews showed that the streaming service offered possibilities for expanding becoming of selves beyond gender identifications. Eight interviews were performed with female-identified users aged between 14 to 62, with an interest in music, in the spirit of internet-related ethnography, based on a narrative inquiry way of thinking. Hence, they were interviewed at the same time as the users handled their Spotify interface setup. The interviewees were recorded, transcribed and analysed in a narrative manner. The results show how and to what extent the user-Spotify relation offers possibilities to expanding becoming, or virtual femininity. Braidotti’s (2017) concepts of feminist becoming woman, and virtual femininity are used as theoretical lenses in relation to the analysis. The article shows how entanglements with technology, music, human actors, and views of relationships contribute to virtual femininities.
