Her project <em>Female Extension <\/em>(1997) was a hack of the first net.art competition initiated by a museum, in which she flooded the museum&#8217;s network with submissions by 300 virtual female net artists. Her net.art generator (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.obn.org\/generator\">http:\/\/www.obn.org\/generator<\/a>) automatically produces art on demand.

Nonetheless she was able to produce a series of several videos in which she interviewed female hackers. In December 1999 she came to know a U.S. hacker who attended the annual hackers&#8217; convention held by the Chaos Computer Club (CCC). She did the video interview have script, will destroy with her on condition that the woman, code-named Clara G. Sopht, remained anonymous and did not provide specific information about her work. The result is a highly theoretical interview about current forms of political resistance, undermined by seductively beautiful and enigmatically diffuse pictures of a woman wearing sunglasses and a cap, moving around in a low-tech scenario.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u2014Yvonne Volkart, &#8220;<em>Tamed Girls Running Wild, Figurations of Unruliness in Contemporary Video Art<\/em>&#8220;, : Video as a Female Terrain, ed.
