| Benjamin Poynter | (Artist's statement.) Ben is a practitioner of digital media in the contemporary world gravitiating toward concepts involving augmented existence and experimental narrative. New media as a constellation of interaction that has perused erratic, gray nexuses between the continents of fantasy and reality. With this intersection evident, the holy barrier between intellect and the emotion rises. I simply believe that fantasy cannot persevere without the ingredient of reality for it is a product of just that. Dreams require ambiguous, celluloid snapshots of real matter to exist. In turn, reality is a violence unto itself without fantasy as it is perpetually supplemented by the ideas of commodity and spectacle. Reality eventually becomes merely a representation of its own self through the fermentation of new media and duplicating information. Time, once our guardian, has become an illusion absorbed into a romantic definition of escape perpetuated by technology. This is the phenomenal highway my work merges into, in the personal desire it will guide escapists trapped in the defeat of a subterranean past and back into the a concrete absolute where dreams still exist. | See all 1 posts by Benjamin Poynter |

| Justholme | I have been interested in philosophy since 1989. At that time I had what can be described as an existential doubt attack. Almost nothing seemed certain to me anymore. Philosophy seemed the way out of this crisis. If only I could work out a few things, find some firm footing in truth I could get on with my life. Surprisingly, perhaps, that is how it worked out, and after years of searching I started to make some progress. In 2003 I was lucky enough to get an offer to read Philosophy at Cambridge university. It was a fantastic course and really inspired me to come up with some interesting, I hope, ideas which I share in my books and blogs, but with a grounding in a thorough philosophical apprenticeship. My main interests are influenced by the excellent psychology course option I took in my final year, so are mostly focused on Consciousness, Free Will and Spirituality. | See all 2 posts by Justholme |

Obviously I write, that's what I'm doing at the moment; I'm a twenty something female from Bahrain, happily married, I spend my afternoons with my two year old daughter, juggling home, family, and my secret affair with writing. I'm currently working on my own novel hoping it see's the light soon, I try to make time to blog as well, and I'm a new recruit of this wonderful community. Nice to meet y'all. | See all 2 posts by NoorA |

| pblythe | Patrick Blythe began painting in 1970 after studying art and photography at Lakeland College. In 1972 he began working in various metals, with hammer, forge and welder. He learned blacksmithing and welding skills from his grandfather, Art Walker, who became a noted artist late in life after 60 years as a metalworker. Patrick’s artwork applies the skills learned working in factories and farms to the ancient materials of bronze and glass. The modernist shapes and density of his contemplative bronze forms provide a beautiful contrast to the colorful and transparent properties of his joyful impressionistic work in glass. Patrick is highly sought after as a lecturer and an instructor, and is creating a new teaching studio in the Southern California desert. The studio will welcome artists and instructors from around the world for classes, retreats, and residency programs. Patrick’s art reflects his passion for nature, a contemplative appreciation of our desert environment, and an intense desire to express personal experiences. Patrick’s award-winning work is included in collections throughout the world. | See all 1 posts by pblythe |

A comedy scriptwriter for radio and TV in the sixties, Bernard King wrote material for the greats of the day, from Bob Monkhouse and Max Bygraves to Dave Allen and Bob Hope. After a successful business career, he switched to writing novels. http://www.bernardking.co.uk
Stefan Bleekrode has been working as a self-taught artist since 2004, travelling Europe and the US regularly in search for inspiration. Urban scenery is the prime subject in many of his pictures. Often these images convey a mood of contemplation and solitude. Currently he works in water-colour and egg tempera whilst his cityscape drawings are usually executed in ink.
Julie Ball’s work explores the use of digital microscopic photography. The irony and humour she injects into the work is her way of dealing with the more serious ‘bits and pieces’ in life and often takes the form of poetry which connects with the art.‘Navigational Error’ is a silk screen print of a microscopic image of a dead insect removed from the surface of her car following a journey.

Lotte Teussink is a 28-year-old Dutch visual artist, living and working in Rotterdam. Her work consists of drawings and paintings, taking peaceful scenery of eg. a house, a car and a clothes-line, and alienating it by using awkward colours, forms and placing. For the series called Grave Expectations she took various different small drawings from her dummy and made it into one, almost like a collage. This makes it a lovely explosion of little absurdities. www.lotteteussink.nl
Erik Vink lives and works in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands. He performs worldwide with the international street theatre group Close Act and creates big, realistic oil paintings on linen. He chooses his subjects from common media such as newspapers. He isolates them from their environment using extreme framing and no backgrounds. The final result: the named portrait as the ultimate imagination of the group. www.erikvink.nl
Spike Dennis trained at the distinguished Wimbledon School of Art, London. He has been creating, painting, sticking, drawing and inventing since the great summer of nineteen eighty something. The young and enthusiastic artist can be found buried in his lair in South Wales assembling an audacious body of artwork inspired by rocks, dreams and the natural world, with which he hopes to conquer Newport, and then …the universe! www.eye-sore.co.uk
Lorena Guerra is a 23-year-old graphic designer currently living in Los Angeles, CA. She really doesn’t like Los Angeles at all, but somehow she ended up there. She has always liked music, books, the internet, video games, and snacks. But she absolutely hates TV.

The Wish Fulfillment Machine is a magical entity capable of making all your dreams come true. Through highly technical and super-scientific processes (and a bit of glitter) the staff grants submitted wishes. Creators Britt and Jules live in the U.S. When they aren’t granting wishes they like to drink bubble tea, throw birthday parties, and soak in the tub. http://WishFulfillmentMachine.com BrittanyDeNigris.com, JulianneHamilton.com
