Mercury, final prompt for #printerSolstice2425, made me think of #alchemy. It is an element the alchemists favoured & felt was fundamental in their efforts to transmute base into precious metals, both in western & Chinese alchemy (from whence western alchemy emerged).

This is my #linocut portrait of an #alchemist known as Master Geng (before ~975, 耿先生; Gěng Xiānshēng, sometimes Kêng Hsien-shêng). 🧵1/n

Inspired by Song Dynasty Chinese painting this is my linocut portrait of Geng Xiansheng outlined in black on ivory paper, seated at a table with alchemical furnace, vessels cups by a building and bamboo plants covered in snow. She has a flower in her hair and wears a green robe. The vessels are red, and blue. The bamboo is green with black. The roof of the building lintel has a red stripe below a pattern of blue and green.

Fakt ist: Es gibt zu wenige weibliche Fachkräfte im IT-Sektor. Fakt ist auch: Viele Frauen verlassen ihn nach einiger Zeit wieder.

Im Vorhaben #Tech2stay stellen wir uns der Frage: Wie gestalten Unternehmen die Bedingungen so, dass Frauen in der IT bleiben und ihr volles Innovationspotenzial entfalten?

#opencall Auf der #INFORMATIK25 kommen Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft zusammen: Bis 7.4. können Beiträge für den Workshop eingereicht werden 👉 informatik2025.gi.de/programmu

🤔 What's next for climate modeling? 5️⃣internationally recognized #femaleScientists, including #MPI_director Sarah Kang, argue: Instead of picking just 1 path, #climateresearch should embrace #diversity&integrate multiple approaches–e.g., artificial intelligence #AI 🧠, km-scale modeling, & parameter tuning. They show how the past provides us with ample evidence that a diverse strategy is most promising. 🙌 ➡️ mpimet.mpg.de/en/communication

Drawing of three hikers walking towards a summit. A flag with the inscription "improved projection" is waving on the summit. A signpost points in different directions for "conceptual modeling", "machine learning", and "high resolution modeling", but all paths lead to the summit.

Her Maths Story

“Since my goal was to solve a problem no one had ever solved before, it required a creative and flexible approach, one that emphasized the exploration, experimentation, and steady refinement of ideas. But perhaps the most important lesson I learned was that there is no single “correct” way to be a mathematician.” - Katy Micek

Seeing dark matter in the Andromeda galaxy

By Vera Rubin, from the archives, via @physicstoday

This is a story of why and how Kent Ford and I studied the orbital velocities of stars in the Andromeda galaxy 40 years ago. Our study was influential in the later conclusion that most of the matter in the universe is dark.

it's funny because it's not just a cartoon making a point, but very literally the majority of every interview I've had in tech sectors. There have been some stand-outs, very few and very far between.

nearly as often I've had their type tell me that my experience surely couldn't be this way, simply because they've never considered life from another's shoes. well, surely they must be right, right?

after some time one gets used to the layers of self-censorship, of maintaining a type of professionalism and expressive-pefection and poise so consistently that it becomes not second nature but a long-forgotten absorbed rule of existing once inside the corporate doors.

since the diagnosis I've let down a lot of those walls, those perfections, just to see how life would be. it did not make life easier, that can be said politely.

A woman in white sits alone on a chair, poised and professional, in front of a panel of men in suits, most of whom are slacking in one way or another. An aptly poignent caption at the bottom of the panel says, "Describe what you can bring to the company." -- resonating with so many in STEM who exist solely as the only woman in a workforce specialization dominated not by merit or experience - but of one's sex.
