PEOPLE INVOLVED

Andreas Angelidakis, angelidakis.com. If you are an architect,forget Koolhaas and Gehry : Angelidakis is the one to watch.
Tobias Bernstrup, http://www.bernstrup.com He is not gay but he enjoys dressing in drag and he uses boring contemporary art museums and exhibitions, to perform his pretty and sad songs. These days he is becoming a pop star in Europe.
Boy in static, http://www.boyinstatic.com Just listen. Not much info available. Alien.
Büro Destruct,http://www.burodestruct.net . Superdesigners from Basel. See their characters .
John White C, http://www.johnwhitec.com. He lives in Chicago and he is still a bit "contemporary art" but he did a GREAT piece at his ElectronicOrphanage show, STEG, 2001 and a very pretty piece for Afterneen , called nowpause.
Carbonated Jazz, http://www.carbonatedjazz.com . Alex, very young and very neen, is not even sure if he wants to be neen or anything for that matter, but he is talented like hell .
Mike Calvert, http://www.mikecalvert.org . He made the famous " Strawberries and Pizza ", one of the very first Neen pieces. He is lost in space these days. We don't know where he is , probably in the arms of a Korean designer. He did nothing yet for the show but he designed the beautiful afterneen logo.
Larry Carlson , http://www.larrycarlson.com . Larry is different . It's not your mother's contemporary art. Sorry if you will hate it: its not our fault.
Michael Cervieri and the Contemplative Physiologists .www.contemplativephysiology.com He is a writer and a very pretty American guy. He promised to write his manifesto, but he took of to Tibet with an Indian beauty. He collects his friends and they contemplate on different things and they change the World.
Mauro Ceolin, http://www.rgbproject.com Italian Neen. A bit arty but nice. We still wait a nice piece from him.
Aaron Clinger, http://www.aaronclinger.com This guy did only the amazing themanproject . He is very young and difficult to communicate . He thinks that he must have a job and therefore his website is very telic. We believe in him !
Geoff Sterns, http://www.deconcept.com Another one like the above in struggle with jobs and real life. Is "job" an American disease ? He is a supergenious as this piece shows. I bet that MOMA will buy this piece soon. He lives in Tucson, AZ.
Essetesse , http://www.essetesse.com A mysterious ex-scientist , turned composer. He lives in California and he is very tall. He makes music with Kazaa, the new Napster software. He uses music of other people as instruments but its not the usual DJ sampling , or maybe it is: I don't know . His "songs" are insane ...
Future Farmers, www.futurefarmers.com . They pretend to be designers, one of them is a marxist and another ( Amy Franceschini ), loves nature. They are based in San Francisco of course. They are the Beatles of the Internet: everybody is influenced by them. Their website theyrule.net, was the only interesting artwork in this Whitney Biennial.
Joel Fox, http://www.magicrobot.org This guy could be the biggest American artist of our days, a screen De Kooning and a Pollock together. See this and this . He is just too ahead of his times to be discovered yet.
Yvonne Force. Any female character in the world of art curating would dream to be Yvonne Force. Like Jan Aman, she invented herself and she is one of the few powerful yet not corrupted people in the artworld. She is also the one who produced Neen. Nobody else that Yvonne Force would have the courage to collect the top of the NY society at Gagosian and inform them that the new name of today's art is NEEN.

Nikola Tosic, http://www.nekada.com, What this serbian guy does is "art" but very few of you will ever get it and that's because you think that computer and Internet are just tools like the telephone and the fax machine. Stop reading the retarded art magazines and check his website twice every week to start comprehend the situation. He designed the sticker for afterneen : iambestfuckalltherest.com
Mark Tranmer ( Gnac), http://www.gnac.co.uk, That's the best music your ears can enjoy. Listen it again and again. He is a re-incarnation of Bach ( the whole Bach family...)
Mai Ueda, http://www.maiueda.com Nothing would be Neen without Mai Ueda . She is a namingway ( she thought of Neenstar and iamgonnacopy.com in between other names ) and a super girl. For the show , she made abiraunken.com based on a Zen sutra. Not that she cares about Zen...
