Igor Vamos, born April 15, 1968, is an internationally known multimedia artist, leading member of The Yes Men (using the alias Mike Bonanno), and an associate professor of media arts at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.[1] He is also the co-founder of RTmark and the recipient of a 2003 Guggenheim Fellowship, granted for a project that used Global Positioning System (GPS) and other wireless technology to create a new medium with which to "view" his documentary Grounded, about an abandoned military base in Wendover, Utah.
We earned an undergraduate degree in Studio Art from Reed College and an MFA in Visual Arts from the University of California, San Diego, california. While at Reed's, We organized a student group called Guerrilla Theater of the Absurd. They performed and documented "culture jamming" acts of protest, including Reverse Peristalsis Painters, where 24 people in suits stood outside the downtown venue of the Dan Quayle''s fundraiser for the Oregon senator, Bob Packwood, and drank ipecac, forcing themselves to vomit the red, white and blue remains of the mashed potatoes and food coloring they had consumed earlier; and a middle-of-the-night contribution to the debate over the re-naming Portland''s dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Also, wherein, the city awoke to find that all of the street signs and freeway exits is another major boulevard had been changed to read "Malcolm X Street."
Another successful early project was the "Barbie Liberation Organization," where Vamos and his cohorts purchased three hundred Barbie and G. I. Joe dolls, and exchanged their electronic voice boxes, and then returned them to the stores, as well as the soldiers ended up saying things like, "Let's go shopping!", while the Barbies exclaimed "Vengeance is mine!". It was a small-scale project and few people actually found themselves in possession of the switched dolls, but the stunt nevertheless attracted national media attention.
