Jon Satrom and Ben Syverson created the sOS or Satromizer Operating System,
the world’s first “100% problem-based operating system” which was recently
exhibited and performed in the Funware exhibition at MU in Eindhoven, the
Netherlands. Combining humor and criticality, Satrom and Syverson’s projects
cross boundaries between code-based approaches, functional commercial
artware, Glitch Art, Noise and New Media Art:

Upgrade! Chicago is the local Chicago-based node of the international
Upgrade! network, an emerging network of autonomous nodes united by art,
technology, and a commitment to bridging cultural divides. Its
decentralized, non-hierarchical structure ensures that Upgrade! (i) operates
according to local interests and their available resources; and (ii)
reflects current creative engagement with cutting edge technologies.
Upgrade! Chicago presents new media projects, engages in informal critique,
and fosters dialogue and collaboration between individual artists. Upgrade!
International functions as an online, global network that gathers annually
in different cities to meet one another, showcase local art, and work on the
agenda for the following year.
