finishing school
| delocator.net is a Finishing School (FS) project with Vasna Sdoeung. FS is a collective identity that enlists tactical media to investigate the many intersections between educational models, critical theory, and covert and common everyday activities. FS projects attempt to demystify cultural production and redefines viewers as active participants engaged in a learning process. When applicable, FS invites operatives representing a variety of disciplines to participate in projects.
