Jon Thomson

An artist living in London working with Alison Craighead. We make things for galleries, online and sometimes outdoors. Lots of our recent work looks at live networks like the web and how they are changing the way we all understand the world around us. We believe that live information (live data) can be used as a material for making art works.
