A footsoldier in the battle between network and hierarchic culture, Jon Ippolito is an artist, former Guggenheim curator, and co-founder of the Still Water new media program at the University of Maine. He's a sans-serif kind of guy.

You can find more information about his contributions to this site at his New Media Web site profile.
