Hi everyone,
Here's my two cents worth :-) Some have been mentioned by others.....
xx Renee
MY NAME: Renee Turner
ALSO COLLABORATES: with Riek Sijbring and Femke Snelting under the
name of De Geuzen a foundation for multi-visual research

INSPIRED OR IMPRESSED BY (AND THESE ARE JUST A FEW):
Donna Haraway: Author of A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and
Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century, she has a way of
embedding technologies within history, science, bodies and everyday
life.
Online lecture here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yxHIKmMI70
A Cyborg Manifesto:
http://www.stanford.edu/dept/HPS/Haraway/CyborgManifesto.html
Laurie Anderson, jack of all trades, hacker, pioneer and techno-
shaman. In 1984, I saw her United States Live tour, and was humbled to
witness it.

Steina Vasulka: An early pioneer of the electronic arts, Steina, often
in collaboration with her partner Woody Vasulka, pushed the aesthetics
of technology and video to its outer limits. In 1974, she taught at
the Center for Media Study at the State University of New York, where
she was the only female faculty member in the department at that time.
Through the years her work has played with the limits of technology
while simultaneously embracing those restraints for their visual
qualities. One particular example of this kind of approach is Machine
Vision.
An interview can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yd9jaqkY6Dw
Joan Jonas: She is a funky storyteller who has the capacity to weave
together the rinky dink, the poetic and the technological. A snippet
of Vertical Roll is here: http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/works/vertical-roll/video/1/
Charlotte Moorman: Bold, experimental and a fantastically lateral
Southern thinker. Worked with Nam June Paik and had zero fears about
toying with new technology. She also had a tremendous sense of humor.
Interviewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiEJdOlgcDE
Avital Ronell, the author of The Telephone Book: Technology,
Schizophrenia, Electric Speech, is a mental broad surfer par
excellence. Not only has she theorized about technology, but also
stupidity, addiction and literature. She has a way of making wildly
rogue connections.
There is no link of her discussing The Telephone Book, but here's one
where she discusses stupidity:

Lisa Haskell, organized different projects around technology and
digital culture. I haven't seen her in years, but those early
projects were inspiring and brought many people together to think and
produce in different ways.
Christina McPhee: artist and writer....works with data landscapes. I
have admired her as a moderator on Empyre for years. She has a way of
raising the calibre of discussion without being exclusive or
intimidating. That is truly a rare trait on list culture.
Pauline van Mourik Broekman: she co-founded with Simon Worthington
Mute Magazine. She is someone who connected people and worked in
subtle and invisible ways to
Kate Rich, the Bureau of Inverse Technology: Many years ago De
Geuzen, asked her to come to the Netherlands and lecture at a
symposium called Situating Technologies. She gave an inspiring talk
on the Bureau's activities. The suicide box is still brilliant: http://www.bureauit.org/sbox/#video
Sandy Stone: She is Associate Professor and Founding Director of the
Advanced Communication Technologies Laboratory. I admire her ability
to forge new ways of thinking about gender, machines, the erotic,
science and frontier bodies. I saw her perform several years ago at V2
in Rotterdam, and she is an amazing storyteller. Last but not least,
she has a great sense of humor:

Josephine Bosma, through her essays and interviews, she's made
valuable contributions to media art history and debate.

Riek Sijbring and Femke Snelting (aka De Geuzen): I have worked with
both of these women for almost 15 years. Through practicing together,
we have learned much about feminisms and media ecologies.
I thank all of these women..... and I could keep going and going with
more women.... but I better stop here for the moment :-)

MY NAME: Olga Panades Massanet
URLs: http://www.ungravitational.net; http://virtualfirefly.wordpress.com/
INSPIRED BY:
Francesca da Rimini. For her evocative and cruel mappings of certain
realities; her radical use of fiction, of the impossibility coming to
life. Her manufacture of peripheral worlds, deeply rooted in
actuality, but also exceeding it in a very powerful personal style
that floods perception. And particularly for her way of constructing
labyrinths that suck you in.
http://subsol.c3.hu/subsol_2/contributors/dariminibio.html
Natalie Jeremijenko. I find particularly inspiring her practical
approach and aim to produce actual results. Her current project for
example, the Environmental Health Clinic
[http://www.environmentalhealthclinic.net/] “develops and prescribes
locally optimized and often playful strategies to effect remediation
of environmental systems,
producing measurable and mediagenic evidence
and coordinating diverse projects to effective material change.” “Her
work explores opportunities presented by new technologies for
non-violent social change. Her research centres on structures of
participation in the production of knowledge and information, and the
political and social possibilities (and limitations) of information
and emerging technologies — mostly through public experiments.”
Coco Fusco. For her ongoing fight against authoritarian policies and
repression along borders, inside communities, and across countries. An
active feminist working at the intersection of political intervention
and media-art. Hers is a critical look into the technologically
mediated environments of today that brings about questions in a daring
and playful manner. http://www.thing.net/~cocofusco
