PAULA LEVINE is a media artist and Associate Professor of Art in Conceptual/Information Arts, at San Francisco State University. Her current research and art practice is in GPS, remote and locative media. As a participant in the 2004 IntraNation Residency, The Banff Centre, Levine produced SpeakingHere and Shadows from another place: San Francisco ß->Baghdad. She presented a paper on these locative projects at MIT:4 – The Work of Stories, as a Mobile Narrative panelist. Levine is currently working on a series of projects and essays based on her ideas of transpositional mapping: using coordinates of distant events as templates that are overlaid locally. Collapsing the safety of distance, these hypothetical maps ground foreign events in local terms. Security Wall, a transpositional mapping of the Israeli barrier, is a work in progress. In April, 2006, she will exhibit Signature, a GPS triggered sound installation, as part of Sonoma County Museum’s centennial commemoration 1906 California earthquake.

JEN SOUTHERN is an artist and lecturer based in Huddersfield, UK. Her work involves investigating everyday journeys between virtual and physical spaces, which are navigated through socially embedded technologies such as video games, mobile phones and locative media. With a particular interest in personal and specific relationships with technology in everyday life and ordinary places her work investigates real experiences of game spaces through learning and navigation. Her use of technology is specific to each project and has included robotics, wearables, shipping containers, CD ROMs and currently GPS (Global Positioning System).
Jen's practice is installation based and has been both process led and collaborative, exploring the many grey areas between shared authorship, audience participation and interaction. She has also written and curated, and run technical and creative workshops as part of her own work and in other contexts. These modes of operation are integral to a practice that is rooted in social processes and the relationship between people and local environment.
