Bio

Michael Naimark is a media artist and researcher with over two decades of experience investigating "place representation." He was instrumental in the founding of several research labs, including the MIT Media Lab (1980), Atari Research Lab (1982), the Apple Multimedia Lab (1987), Lucasfilm Interactive (now LucasArts, 1989), and Interval Research Corporation (1992), where he spent over 8 years.

His art projects exhibit internationally and are in the permanent collections of the Exploratorium, the American Museum of the Moving Image, and the Center for Arts and Media (ZKM). Michael was the 2002 recipient of the World Technology Award for the Arts and the 2004 Guest Curator of the Ars Electronica Symposium in Linz, Austria.
