On September 20, 2012, Chicago dirty new media artists jonCates
(http://systemsapproach.net/) and Jon Satrom (http://jonsatrom.com/)
each presented a performance as an intersection with the exhibition
"Ex-Static: George Kagan's Radios" at Intuit, the Center for Intuitive
and Outsider Art in Chicago, IL. Their performances serve as examples of
new media employed as a tactic in support of art rather than "new media
art" as a condition represented by infatuation with expensive, new devices.
Channel TWo is Adam Trowbridge and Jessica Westbrook, artists currently
living in Chicago and working under the name Channel TWo. They received
a 2012 Rhizome Commission, a 2011 Turbulence Commission for “NYC on
Channel TWo.” They co-edited “Dynamic Coupling,” Fall 2010, Media-N:
Journal of the New Media Caucus, addressing issues of collaboration in
research, practice, and academia. Select recent projects/installations

NYC; University of Wisconsin Madison, gli.tc/h/ festival, Kinsey
Institute, Hyde Park Art Center, and the Block Museum. Westbrook and

Practices at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
