Design an9 cost modifications were made to ORNL's Computer Programs MSF-21 and VTE-21 originally developed for the rapid calculation and design optimization of multistage flash (MSF) and multieffect vertical tube evaporator (VTE) desalination plants. The modifications include additional design options to make possible the evaluation of desalting plants based on current technology (the original programs were based on conceptual designs applying advanced and not yet proven technological developments and design features) and new materials. and equipment costs updated to mid-1975.

This chapter notes the discourse alleging androgyny, genderlessness, and/or asexuality in the work of Laurie Anderson. It then argues that such claims are shortsighted and that, in fact, the seeming illegibility of Big Science’s sexuality was the result of a highly gendered multiyear artistic strategy. Shedding rare new light on Anderson’s early artwork from the 1970s, the chapter demonstrates a progression away from sexual frankness that is congruous with both her increasing fame and the sexist pressures externally placed on her either to conform to, deviate from, or otherwise speak for women’s sexual archetypes. Central to this process is Anderson’s development of a strategy that the chapter dubs “doing-not-telling,” which becomes a signature move in her later works.
