Our current PST ART exhibition, Digital Capture: Southern California and the Pixel-Based Image World features Lee's artwork, Disrupting the Industry. This work draws a parallel between the historically female labor of weaving and the early contributions of women in computing—particularly in roles such as programming, which was in the beginning intensely manual, and the assembly of computer components such as core memory, which was often woven by hand. This weaving visualizes the percentages of computer science degrees earned by women between 1966 and 2010. The dramatic decline after an initial period of equally dramatic growth reflects the broader issues of systemic barriers and gender bias that shape the technology sector, and STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and math) more broadly. The title invokes the terminology that tech companies love to apply to themselves. Here, “disruption” is dislodged from its use as a marketing slogan and reframed in terms of social and economic realities.
