Radical Software: Women, Art & Computing 1960–1991: work and context
ANTI-AI ARCHIVE · Revised 2026-10-02
Work, material and process
The Mudam presentation ran from 20 September 2024 to 2 February 2025. Its scope includes computers as tools or subjects and inherently computational methods. Not every work is a digital output, and the exhibition should not be relabelled wholesale as AI art.

Historical significance and questions
Editorial interpretation: expanding an archive should alter whose work is visible. Attention to women, teaching, textiles and experimental film corrects a timeline dominated by machines and product versions, rather than merely enlarging a numerical total.
