Nüshu (女书) is a unique language used exclusively by women in China when they were excluded from formal education. AI Nüshu (AI女书), an interactive installation based on computational linguistics, trains AI to emulate these women and create a new language system. It challenges human-centric linguistic paradigms while exploring the emergence of language in a non-Western, non-patriarchal, feminist context.
