Net artist, media artist, curator, writer, street artist, activist, educationalist and musician. Emerging in the late 80′s from the streets exploring creativity via agit-art tactics. Using unofficial, experimental platforms such as the streets, pirate radio such as the locally popular ‘Savage Yet Tender’ alternative broadcasting 1980′s group, net broadcasts, BBS systems, performance, intervention, events, pamphlets, warehouses and gallery spaces. In the early nineties, was co-sysop (systems operator) with Heath Bunting on Cybercafe BBS with Irational.org.
Our mission is to co-create extraordinary art that connects with contemporary audiences providing innovative, engaging and inclusive digital and physical spaces for appreciating and participating in practices in art, technology and social change. As well as finding alternative ways around already dominating hegemonies, thus claiming for ourselves and our peer networks a culturally aware and critical dialogue beyond traditional hierarchical behaviours. Influenced by situationist theory, fluxus, free and open source culture, and processes of self-education and peer learning, in an art, activist and community context.

Hi Jess,

this blows it all away.
I love the soul here - it communicates, its with you, its real & is not
pretentious or self-conscious.
Thanx Jess - breath of fresh air...beautiful.

That's funny...
of course the subtext of this text harbours no personal bitchiness, surely
not.

Circlejerk. PH.D.
I advocate that seperatism is a pratical solution in maintaining our great
institutions and the great art that we have grown accustomed to through the
years. We need curators who only select those who have been through the
correct channels, anyone else would most definately be a risk. You do not
nurcher your best children to have the goods squandered on upstarts.

What this world needs is more hierarchical definitions. So we can define who
are the right and correct people to meet regarding furthering an art career.
If you have 'up and coming' artists in the same space as the more
established it could get very confusing. Exclusivity finely tunes good
art...
