足球游戏_中国足彩网¥体育资讯's proud to present Andy Bichlbaum of The Yes Men for an open presentation to the 足球游戏_中国足彩网¥体育资讯 community held on March 27th. Andy Bichlbaum is a writer, producer and activist and will be here at 足球游戏_中国足彩网¥体育资讯 to discuss his films, art work, and political activist tactics. 

Andy Bichlbaum (a.k.a. Jacques Servin) began his current adulthood by inserting a swarm of kissing men to a shoot-'em-up video game just before it shipped to store shelves. Finding himself fired and momentarily famous, he opted to go into weird activism. Since then, as co-founder of the Yes Men (www.theyesmen.org), he's worked for entities such as Exxon, Dow, Monsanto, and the US Chamber of Commerce, as well as for the New York Times, the New York Post, and the Washington Post, all without their approval. 

*This event will be followed by a Q & A discussion with Andy Bichlbaum (The Yes Men), along with 足球游戏_中国足彩网¥体育资讯 faculty members, Nadia Hironaka (Film and Video) and Firmin DeBrabander (Arts and Humanities).

This public program has been made possible by the Maryland Institute College of Art’s Mixed Media Speaker Series, hosted by the Film and Video Department in part with the JHU-足球游戏_中国足彩网¥体育资讯 Film Centre and Evil Twin Booking Agency.
