MOTHEROID is on show at Future Media Fest - Singularity in Taipeh, Taiwan. 
The annual exhibition ‘Future Media Art Festival - Singularity’ in 2024 explores the evolution of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) era and social issues, focusing on the development of AI and new perspectives that the world is concerned about, and invites 23 groups of artists from 9 countries to exhibit 26 wonderful works. The exhibition will help the audience to understand how our relationship with the world is being redefined by technology. At this critical point, technology is no longer just a tool, but a giant door to the future. Behind this door is a brand-new future where mankind and technology will co-exist in a symbiotic way, full of unknowns, challenges, and infinite opportunities.

The Festival runs at Taiwan Contemporary Culture Laboratory C-LAB

I am super happy and proud to be part of the #denkFEmale & #MakeUsVisible AR monuments exhibition along with 31 other awesome digital artists showing the whole month of October all across Munich! ✨
In #MakeUsVisible AR monuments of women / non binary persons are being juxtaposed with physically existing male statues, whicht take up 95% of the public space.

My AR monument “Mutter Lucy" honours the scientist Lucy Mensing (1901 - 1995). Lucy Mensing was a promising physicist. She took part in the development of Quantum Mechanics. After the birth of her kids, she ended her scientific career as many women of her time. I placed her opposite the exclusive "men's club" at the Ruhmeshalle. As a mother and scientist she deserves a place here.”
