As economist in the arts I had a dream: a clarified market for ideas. Yes, ideas, as intangible as digital production, nothing too crazy. So I started by digital art production, VideoArtWorld, creating standards to respect, responsibly acquire and preserve the intangible heritage. It worked! After decades facing all sorts of handicaps, video art is now part of the art market.

Next step, a profitable non-polluting industry of ideas exchanges, which will only be possible respecting each input of professionals working in the industry of thought.

I can buy you a flower, but work is work.

I’m a researcher, sonic artist and theorist working with the trans literary notion of sound in language. I am doing practice led research as a PhD at QUT in Australia. I am also the founder of GIRRL [girrlsound : digital girrl]. GIRRL is a new international organization that promotes and support women working in sonic and digital arts. http://girrl-girrlsound-digitalgirrl.org

Creatively and theoretically I work across sound/text, the gallery and the web. I’m interested in the excess of language and literatures and slippages between genres. I make digital operas or operations compressing different fields together much like the notion of gesamtwert or aggregate value, in that I stage animated digital dummies like ventriloquist dummies, performing scores of sound.



Mare Tralla

Mare Tralla [aka Disgusting Girl] is an Estonian-born media artist and organiser who currently lives and works in London. Currently she is a phD student at University of Westminster researching cyberfeminist art practices in Eastern-Europe in 1990s and how participation in international networks (like Faces) has influenced local practices. In Estonia she is notoriously known as feminist artist, starting with co-organising first Estonian feminist art project ‘Est.Fem’ in 1995, she became widely known in Estonian mainstream media as 'revolting female'. Her often self-ironic art questions the place and the role of women in our societies and how women from Eastern Europe are perceived or seen as in the Western world.
