transmediale Award 2011 Jury member Marisa Olson is New York based, artist, curator, and professor. She studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths College-London, History of Consciousness at UC Santa Cruz, and Rhetoric at UC Berkeley. Her work combines performance, video, drawing & installation to address the cultural history of technology, the politics of participation in pop culture & the aesthetics of failure.
transmediale Award 2011 Jury member Defne Ayas is a curator and educator specialising in new media and performance and cross-cultural projects. Based in Shanghai since 2006, Ayas works as a director of programmes to Arthub Asia, and as an art history instructor at New York University in Shanghai.
transmediale Award 2011 Jury member Brandon LaBelle is a Berlin based artist and writer. His work aims to draw attention to the dynamics of sound as it is found within spaces and objects, public events and interactions, language and the body. Through a performative interaction with objects, found-sound, and minimal electronics, the work draws attention to the quality and nature of what is already there through an emphasis on and displacement of listening and interaction, as a technological and architectural glitch.
