FOR THE RECORD. I am cofounder of Idiosyntactix Alliance with my friend Dmytri Kleiner, our revolutionary brand for independent arts & sciences which was alongside with the NEOISM movement of Monty Cantsin Amen and community organizations such Media Collective, Toronto Free Net, Independent Media Centre etc. During OCCUPY TORONTO 2011 I was representing Idiosyntactix at the media tent which was our last activist action as an alliance.
☆
Idiosyntactix Strategic Arts & Sciences Alliance
