Calculators, homemakers, incubators and pleasure machines.
Women as technology presents four potential roles for women that are as significant as they are problematic: women as homemakers, women as calculators, women as incubators and women as pleasure machines. The exhibition highlights the ambivalent relationship between women and technology and how these roles have in part been shaped by it. Technology itself is far from neutral in this regard: its development invariably reflects prevailing social attitudes. At the same time, you will discover the important contributions that women have made to the development of technology in the home, in computing, in the medical discipline of fertility and in the sex industry.

These features, and the movements and gestures that Ai-Da is programmed to perform, raise questions about human identity in a digital age

The capitalisation in the title and tag are correct being as they appear on the text in the case (which we must regard then as both upper case and lower). Joking aside, the text explains the availability in the adjacent Design Museum of a range of jewellery by Susan Cohn. The pieces are based on fragments of the word 'London'.
