paula roush (born in lisboa, portugal; lives and works in london).
paula is an interdisciplinary artist whose work addresses public culture and urban space. With a visual art and urban/social studies background, she works across these disciplines as both a practitioner and a theorist. She works with the city as a site of investigation and develops ways of intervening in urban space, working in the mode of public art and tactical intervention into public debate but more generally, working with a problematic of the public and the politics of the public sphere.
Paula is the founder of msdm [http://www.msdm.org.uk] a research platform dedicated to mobile strategies of display and mediation. In her projects she explores media in the broadest sense, including electronic tagging, locative media (gps), electronic games, online bots, digital video and photography, radio fm, para-architecture and urban screens (posters, billboards, mupis, crystal eye).
