Anne Bray has been working in the field of media arts since the mid '70s as an administrator, artist and art teacher. With representatives of other communities, she founded the concept of LA Freewaves and has administered the program since inception. As the Executive Director, she has continued to see the organization through the technological, social and aesthetic changes of the 1990s to now. Creating intersections of public art and media art has been her path to providing art for many people much of the time. She teaches graduate seminars in new genres and public art at Claremont Graduate University and the University of Southern California. Her own multimedia artwork is widely exhibited.
Colombian-born Juan Devis writes, directs, and produces collaborative multimedia projects focusing on social and political accountability. His public media interventions are produced, from inception to realization, with local communities. In all of his projects, Devis acts as an educator, editor and translator, embracing a conception of art that has concrete social goals. Devis was nominated for a 2003 Rockefeller Fellowship for his experimental film The Dirt on the Road and was awarded Best Columbian Documentary (Ministry of Culture) for his documentary Ice. The bilingual Devis has also written and directed for film, theater and television, both in the United States and Latin America.
