🌈 ANDOR MERKS
VJ Yourself was established by Andor Merks in 2009, East London. Merks started his research on interactive video and open-art in 2003. The same year he became a Video Jockey, utilizing his software experiments in the underground club scene.
Till 2009 his softwares were made for 'insiders': video artists & VJs. By establishing VJ Yourself, he put his audience in the focus. They are invited to participate in the creative process. Passive viewers become active collaborators, whose actions and inspiration play a vital role in the real-time 'actualization' of the art-work. The centuries old barrier between artist, art-work and audience is joyfully blurring away.

🌈 VELODROME
Velodrome is an DIY queer alt-rock musician based in NE London. She also plays bass for feminist punk witches Dream Nails.
A classically trained singer, Velodrome writes her own material and plays all the instruments on her studio recordings. Performances often feature tigersuit onesies, gender-bending costume changes, and exercise routines; but beneath the theatrical capers lurk themes including gender, LGBTIQA mental health, and social mobility. Velodrome's favourite bands are Tool and Joni Mitchell.
