The Cut Up Collective and their Cut Up Machine
"The Moustache Foundation is proud to present for its inaugural exhibition, CutUp Machine, a series of new works by the collective CutUp.
CutUp are an autonomous group linked by a shared desire to reorder the urban landscape through intervention and play. Incorporating film, collage and installation, CutUp's practice focuses largely on the creative potential of the street as a site for interventionist art and disruption.
Interested in the spaces of misinformation and miscommunication inherent in the everyday, CutUp aim to introduce disorder into daily existence by interrupting and re-appropriating established visual forms. Occurring both inside and outside the gallery, CutUp's billboard and bus stop works are created by slicing up an advert and reassembling the pieces into a newly ordered image."

Viral marketing campaign to discredit Fox Media Corporation
"In February 2007, Brave New Films and a coalition of activists, bloggers and partner groups including MoveOn.org, ColorOfChange.org and The Sierra Club, began to successfully fight FOX's misinformation using the FOX Attacks videos and tools.
To date, the FOX Attacks videos have been seen over two million times and have played a key role in several progressive victories."
