Ingo Günther (DE/US)
World Processor

Based in New York City, Günther specialized in the evaluation and interpretation of military satellite data gathered from above political and military crisis zones. Defining the role of the artist as an informer, Günther combines artistic, journalistic and scientific approaches to make secret information accessible to the public. Since 1989, globes have become one of his favorite means of artistically impacting and stimulating political processes.

A series of articles and interviews stemming from his visits to refugee camps in Thailand became the foundation for his ongoing project "Refugee Republic".

A collection of his works can be found via http://www.worldprocessor.com
