About

Nüshu (女书), Also called "Women's Script," is a unique language created and used exclusively by women in Hunan Province, China, for centuries to communicate Chinese in a world where they were denied formal education. Can AI learn from pre-modern Chinese women and create their own secret language? "AI Nüshu," an interactive art project that merges computational linguistics with the legacy of Nüshu. This project trains AI agents to imitate illiterate women in pre-modern China to create a new language system, symbolizing the defiance of patriarchal constraints and the emergence of language in a non-Western, feminist context.
