VIDEO POST relaunches the project by Behnaz Farahi, active at the crossroad of architetture, fashion, and interactive design, inspired to the essay by feminist theorist Gayatri Spivak, Can the Subaltern Speak?, where the title comes from. Masks that remember the ones worn by the Bandari women from southern Iran to protect themselves from the gaze of potential sexual predator, come to live and start a conversation in Morse code through Artificial Intelligence, one of many possible ways to employ communication for protection purposes.
