从历史上看，女性一直被排除在工程和计算机科学学科之外，交互式音频也不例外。使用微处理器等传统工具设计和构建嵌入式音频系统的女性相对较少，但当使用电子纺织品构建嵌入式音频系统时，更大比例的女性参与技术。在本文中，我们回顾了这一性别差异的理论以及女性在使用音频技术时面临的障碍，然后对电子纺织音频车间和音频平台用户群体的调查数据进行了比较。从案例研究和调查文献中推断，我们认为学习的灵活性、知识的公共传播和工具的性别化是女性通过电子纺织品参与技术的主要原因。
Historically, women have been excluded from engineering and computer science disciplines, and interactive audio is no exception. Relatively few women are involved with the designing and building of embedded audio systems with traditional tools such as microprocessors, but when embedded audio systems are built using e-textiles, much larger proportions of women become engaged with technology. In this paper we review theories for this gender disparity and the barriers women face in working with audio technology, and then present a comparison of survey data between an e-textile audio workshop and an audio platform user group. Extrapolating from the case study and the surveyed literature, we propose that flexibility in learning, communal dissemination of knowledge, and gendering of tools are prominent reasons why women engage with technology via e-textiles.
