| My name is Katrina Jungnickel. I started this project in 2003 as a Research Fellow at s t u d i o INCITE (Incubator for Critical Inquiry into Technology and Enquiry) at the University of Surrey. The project was funded for three months but I became too interested in it to stop. As a result, it continued it for almost three years. Although it is now finished, I have left it online for archival purposes.
I have since finished my PhD, in the Sociology Department at Goldsmiths College and continue to particpate as a member of s t u d i o INCITE. My research explored the innovative practices of DIY/ grassroots technology makers operating on the fringes of large scale institutions with a particular emphasis on the role and importance of materiality and representational practices. For my thesis I undertook two ethnographies: a freakbike club and the largest volunteer community WFi network group in Australia.
