Jon Satrom and Ben Syverson created the sOS or Satromizer Operating System, the world’s first “100% problem-based operating system” which was recently exhibited and performed in the Funware exhibition at MU in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Combining humor and criticality, Satrom and Syverson’s projects cross boundaries between code-based approaches, functional commercial artware, Glitch Art, Noise and New Media Art:

Its decentralized, non-hierarchical structure ensures that Upgrade!

Chicago presents new media projects, engages in informal critique, and fosters dialogue and collaboration between individual artists. Upgrade! International functions as an online, global network that gathers annually in different cities to meet one another, showcase local art, and work on the agenda for the following year.
