Description (in English)

In 2001–2 SFMOMA commissioned the web project Agent Ruby (agentruby.sfmoma.org/) by San Francisco artist Lynn Hershman Leeson for its pioneering online platform e.space. Originally conceived in 1999 as a mobile application for the Palm Pilot, the project was part of Hershman's research for her 2002 film "Teknolust." In 2013, SFMOMA curated an exhibit dedicated to the history of the project entitled  "Lynn Hershman Leeson: The Agent Ruby Files."
