Occupy SF and Vancouver

My idea is to have each group map out the occupy movements in their respective city. It would include an outlined gps track of the space being occupyied and photographs from the occupations.
Lastly, the outlines could be laid over each others occupation, to see which one is bigger and any similarities.

Transhumanism Explored

I'm very interested in exploring the ways people can change their bodies through their hands. I feel that hand modification through the addition of sensors and electronics that react to the environment are very interesting,

This person i find most interesting, Lepht Anonym:


She is exploring what she calls "practical transhumanism", not by waiting for technology to catch up to implement body modifications, but using today's technologies to implant magnets in each of her finger tips. By doing this she can sense magnetic fields around her. Here is a video of someone performing the proceedure



Another thing that is inspiring is the rfid inplants by Amal Graafstra, he has implanted 2 rfids in his hands that allow him to unlock his computer and open doors:

This is all very exciting territory yet i can't help but think that these "experiments" in rfid tagging will soon be standard in place of id cards or transit passes. We must understand these technologies enough so they do not get used against us.

Logo Heist Postup

I wanted to post mine in a space that would give the sense of what the future would be like. I don't think it would be out of the question to have parks that were sanctioned as being "safe" for kids by chemical companies. Seeing this sign, you know it would be safe to let your children roam free without their biosuits.

Logo Heist

There are few companies widely despised as monsanto. A multimillion dollar agricultural company, they have had their hands in everything from agent orange to patented seeds. Monsanto is a major player in current agriculture at home and abroad which makes them a perfect candidate for a heist. with this i plan to use illustrator to convey their actual practices and put that into logo form.
