Jeffrey SHAW
Born 1944 in Melbourne. Carrying out numerous experiments in art form with new media since the late 1960s while based in London and Amsterdam, and creating interactive works for visitors to participate since the late 1980s, SHAW is still active as a leading figure in the realm of media art today. His frequent collaborations with engineers and programmers have resulted in a large number of works that contain new meanings and perspectives on technology.
