The reflection is approached through Cordeiro's seminal work 'A mulher que não é B.B." How does Cordeiro's notion of a digitalized (virtual, non-"concrete") transformation of an iconic anti-Vietnam war image of a woman who was most definitely not B.B.--Brigitte Bardot--respond to a medium that emerged out of cybernetics' and early computation's links to military intelligence?</font></p></td></tr></table></tr></td></table></body></html>
