After the Ada extravaganza, I've been thinking about all these wonderful women and wondering where are their manifesto's. I've decided they should have be called multiple-maryfesto's rather than manifestos. The list of recommendations for the Ada Lovelace list of women distinguished in technologies has revealed a very very long and rich as bunch of little known women and their creative works. What were these women thinking I wonder, what was their frame of inspiration, how broad was their maryfesto? and how close or far from achieving it was their work as we now know it. Is what we take to be their work ....'THE' work. Women's achievements in the arts, is a marginalized & subversive force.

So.a maryfesto is a ...is a list inspiring paradigms that shape creative work, be it sonic art, creative knitting, experimental ecriture writing or avant-garde painting practices...this is the place where every maryfesto's written by a self identifying 'mary' is welcome. Where are the lost maryfesto's, by all the brilliant mary minds of the past? What is the maryfesto frame women and mary's are working with now?
