<br>software/hardware, ageing technology and public vicinities. Her artwork<br>looks at the role of automation in everyday life and how<br>technology-reliant society silences and reinterprets identity. The<br>electronics she builds are ungrounded and tap into the invisible
<br>ethereal realm. She teaches workshops on versatile technologies, makes<br>presentations about experimental approaches to technology, and does<br>consulting with communities new to electronic media and open source<br>practices. Her Recent exhibitions include: PSE at Video Pool (CA),
<br>Damaged Goods at Piksel '06 (NO), Press Play at Interaccess (CA),<br>Racines D'origine with Art origine (FR), Make Art Festival '07 (FR),<br>Encodeurs at Pierre- François Ouellette art contemporain (CA), Media

<br>in Amsterdam and Milan.<br><br>Robyn Moody vit et travaille à Calgary en Alberta. Il aborde son travail<br>dans un esprit ludique, ayant recours à l'électronique, au cinéma, à la<br>performance, à l'installation, à la sculpture, à la peinture ainsi qu'à
<br>toute autre discipline requise par ses projets. L'artiste détient une<br>maîtrise en arts plastiques de l'université NSCAD (Halifax). Ses<br>installations, sculptures et performances ont été présentées dans<br>plusieurs galeries à travers le Canada et l'Europe.
<br><br>~~~<br><br>KYD CAMPBELL<br>...is an independent programmer and curator specialized in circulation,<br>media and noise music and is also a digital artist creating public<br>interactive situations. She is from Montreal but remains in constant
<br>transit. Remaining independent allows her some freedom to speculate and<br>experiment, to welcome all forms of collaboration and information exchange.<br><a href="http://frontierlab.org/" target="_blank">http://frontierlab.org
</a><br><a href="http://www.tinynoise.com/" target="_blank">http://www.tinynoise.com</a><br><br>Longer Farm Description:<br>The Farm works with the idea of an enclosure to metaphorically recast<br>the courtyard of Concordia University's Fine Arts complex into a corral.
<br>During daylight hours the installation produces a continuous, amplified<br>audio stream of sounds that are commonly associated with farms and<br>farming life. The audio stream can be paused briefly by working the<br>lever of a hand-operated water pump. The farm assumes that casual
<br>visitors to the courtyard might find the soundscape novel and<br>entertaining, but students or staff who frequent the Fine Arts complex<br>and its courtyard would soon tire of the sounds and be compelled to<br>operate the water pump.
<br><br>~~~<br><br>MICHAEL CAFFREY<br>...is an independent electronics arts/music technician, musician and<br>all-round alternative energy enthusiast based in Hull Quebec. Micheal's<br>interest in clean ways of charging batteries began in 1997 when he met a
<br>young lady playing a solar powered Casio in the sun. Since then he has<br>been setting up solar powered DC sound systems at DIY dance parties in<br>the woods, mainly with the region's Teknival community. These days
<br>Michael is a member of the Montreal based synth psych rock band 'The<br>Unireverse' and is working alongside the Casio player he met in the sun<br>on getting their home off the grid.<br><br>~~~<br><br>MOSHE DANIEL
