SUMMARY:Any Girl Can Be Glamorous: Recasting AWoman’s Legacy of Science Hi
 story in Haunted Media.
DESCRIPTION:Elico Suzuki (The University of Tokyo)\n\nThis paper examines 
 Mercurius - the Case of Hedy Lamarr (2025), which employs Visible Light Co
 mmunication to reinterpret telecom- munication technology as a medium for 
 creative expression. This art installation, which was presented in the sol
 o exhibition Any Girl Can Be Glamorous, centers on the life of Hedy Lamarr
 , Hol- lywood actress and co-inventor of frequency-hopping technology. Fre
 quency hopping shifts radio frequencies to prevent jamming and interceptio
 n. Using the framework of ‘Haunted Media,’ this piece brings to light the 
 hidden history of women in science and technology. It transforms archival 
 audio into a series of flickering light signals, speaking the language of 
 signal, secret, and trans- mission found in Lamarr’s work. The audience, n
 ow an active re- ceiver, encounters a layered historical narrative that in
 terweaves wireless communication technology with Lamarr’s story, whose lon
 g-overlooked contributions form the very foundation of this media art inst
 allation. By analyzing its conceptual framework, tech- nical implementatio
 n, and audience experience, I demonstrate how Visible Light Communication 
 can function as research-based art.\n\nRegistration Category: Enhanced Acc
