Hello Cigdem and others sharing this interest, You might also want to take a look at the literature and exhibits of tactical media. There is an interesting and under-discussed relationship between tactical media in design. As starting points I would suggest the catalog for the exhibition The Interventionists. The Interventionists Users' Manual for the Creative Disruption of Everyday Life Edited by Nato Thompson and Gregory Sholette MIT Press 2004. You might want to specifically look at the work of Nathan Martin (Carbon Defense League / DeepLocal). Martin wrote a master's thesis on Parasitic Media as art practice and now practices design. You can access the essay here: www.carbondefense.org/pdf/writing_7.pdf Carl On Jan 7, 2008, at 3:14 PM, Elizabeth Goodman wrote: > I'd suggest getting in touch with Anne Galloway -- www.plsj.org -- > or at least checking out her writing.
