Luuk Bouwman graduated from the St. Joost Academy, (Breda, the Netherlands)
in 2000, having specialized in audio-visual arts. His graduation projects
were the "Criminorama of Darker Oss - 4000 years of senseless violence" - a
miniature crime museum, and 'Huge Harry and the Institute of Artificial
Art' - a documentary that suggested that from now on, art production should
be automated. He also worked as a program maker for Waskracht!, a TV program
of the Dutch broadcaster VPRO.
tropisms.org started as his personal videolog, an extended version of the
conventional weblog that integrates streaming video-files with a time-based
travel diary. In the last year, he traveled through South-America for 6
months with a camera and laptop.
Tropisms 2, that is currently being developed, will be the collective
videolog of an international group of young filmmakers.

Florian Schneider is working as author, net activist, film maker and movie
producer. He is a member of n.s.i.a.m.p., which is a small group of
activists, artists, filmmakers, fotographers from Germany and abroad. They
have organised [cross the border] at the Hybrid WorkSpace of the Documenta X
in Kassel. Their central political struggle is to support migrants and
refugees, documented or undocumented, in their fights for the right to live,
where they like and how they like. Over the last years Schneider is
concentrating on the question, how communicational leadership and dominant
positions can be attacked and undermined by a practical criticism of borders
and networks. He is co-organisor of the 'No One is Illegal' and the 'Cross
the Border' campaigns as well as of the 'Was Tun?' project, an digital
information platform for contemporary aktivism and transnational networks of
protest. His recent video documentary 'A World to Invent' explores the ideas
of four philosophers (a.o. Antonio Negri and Michael Hart) on antiglobalism.
