ROBIN LOCKE MONDA (USA)
(blog administrator)

Robin Locke Monda is a graphic designer, visual artist and writer. Commercial clients have included book publishers, advertising agencies, non-profits and cultural organizations. As a visual artist she works in “old” and “new” media, occasionally straddling the two (digital prints). She follows the currents that run between popular media, activism and creative art practice, and is especially interested in the relationship between art-making and commerce.

Locke Monda has shown at the New York State Museum, Katonah Museum of Art, New York Hall of Science (Queens), 55 Mercer Street (Manhattan), Thread Waxing Space (Manhattan), Pratt Manhattan Gallery, Pierogi 2000 (Brooklyn) and Silicon Gallery (Philadelphia), as well as a number of other spaces. Her poetry has been published in You Are Here: New York City Streets in Poetry (P&Q Press), and she has taught production courses in QuarkXPress, Photoshop, Illustrator, typography and book design at Pratt Manhattan, Parsons School of Design, School of Visual Arts and College of Staten Island (CUNY).

EDWARD D. MILLER (USA)
Edward D. Miller’s scholarship focuses on radio and nonfiction media. His book Emergency Broadcasting and 1930s American Radio (2003) has been widely recognized. Miller is currently completing Episodes of Reality, which examines the rise of nonfictionality in American popular culture in the early 1970s. Recently he appeared aboard the Staten Island Ferry as well as on WNYC radio. He also composes sound collages and rotates these pieces at www.myspace.com/acousmetre. He has been published in many online journals and publications and maintains the web log Adventures In and Out of Mainstream Media at http://milleremedia.blogspot.com. Miller is Associate Professor of Media Culture at the College of Staten Island and also teaches in the Film Studies Certificate Program at the Graduate Center, The City University of New York. His approach is influenced by his training in performance studies and an ongoing interest in critiques of Western philosophical and cultural traditions. Miller has also worked extensively in downtown New York theater. Before academia, Miller’s career was in magazine publishing and nonprofit management.

He is a student in Hunter’s Integrated Media Arts MFA Program, is a dedicated father to his 9-year-old son, with whom he shares time between Philly and Manhattan.
