Wendy Carlos is one of the female pioneers of electronic music. She gained public recognition especially through her composition of original soundtracks for "Shining," "Clockwork Orange," and "Tron." VALENTINA is a performative homage to her. The artist Valentina Formenti performatively re-stages an interview Wendy Carlos gave to Playboy in 1979. The focus is on the parts of the interview that were cut and didn't make it to the print edition. While the magazine showed interest mainly the gender transformation of Wendy Carlos, hers ranged from cartography, physics, mathematical transformations and other sophisticated topics.
