About the Curator
Miriam Arbus (Sky Fine Foods) has an ongoing, developing practice interested in issues that intersect around new medias and digital technologies, post internet and post digital existences, and new feminisms. She investigates the shifting geographies of new realities and landscapes and the potentials this offers for openness and equalising representation. Her practice has taken form most frequently in curatorial pursuits: organising conceptually-driven exhibitions and participatory experiences that are responsive and relational.
Sky Fine Foods is a rejuvenating experience, concerned with ecologies, inclusion, simulation, screens and realities, focused in new media, digitally informed practices, and digital processes.

What's with the squid?
The squid, InterAccess's aged and beloved mascot, dives deep into nostalgia, back to the days when technology was more tactile and tentacled. The friendly and intelligent cephalopod represents decades of inked emails, adaptability, and swimming through the cyber waves. During events, artists and viewers drop cash and coins into the squid's tank, "feeding” it to support future programming.
