Publisher Synopsis
"It was one of the formative periods in my life to be associated with many of the creative women in this book. It was a magic period, when these women helped transform the world as we knew it. I am so happy to see their innovative work is finally getting "New Media Futures will be a rewarding read and a prized possession for scholars interested in the experimental, creative spaces for art carved out by women working between the coasts. . . . The many images from the artists' own collections, and stories told in their own words make this lively and engaging volume a welcome addition to the literatures on women's history, the histories of computing, and the digital media arts." --Platypus "This important anthology offers riveting testimonials to the tangible contributions of women during the dawn of the digital era. Concentrated in the Midwest, these scientists, inventors, designers and artists faced down gender bias to shape the global future of technology and culture."--Sara Diamond, President, OCAD University "New Media Futures: The Rise of Women in the Digital Arts is poised to become a valuable study tool for those interested in the intersection between art, women artists, and technology." --Hyperallergic "This is a book that can be picked up and opened to any area to explore. If you do, you will come away a little bit wiser, certainly more informed and totally impressed with what these women have done." --Illinois Times "This is a fascinating and important book. It will appeal to scientists, technologists, artists and the general public. It tells wonderfully exciting stories of creative, risk-taking women (and men) that will inspire present and future generations. These stories demonstrate that the creative spark that drives scientists and artists knows no disciplinary boundaries. And it is simply a delightful read."--Walter E. Massey, Chancellor, School of the Art Institute of Chicago Read more...
