ODI's Data as Culture Programme
Graham Harwood and Matsuko Yokokoji (YoHa translates to English as ‘aftermath’) have lived and worked together since 1994. YoHa’s graphic vision and technical tinkering has powered several celebrated collaborations establishing an international reputation for pioneering arts projects, including the first on-line commission from Tate Gallery London and work in the permanent collections of the Pompidou Centre, ZKM and Manifesta07. Harwood and Yokokoji’s co founded the artists group Mongrel (1996-2007) and established the free-media lab MediaShed (2005-2008). In 2008 they joined Richard Wright to produce Tantalum Memorial which won the Transmediale first prize for 2009 and toured over four years to nine countries and 15 cities. In 2010 YoHa produced the celebrated Coal Fired Computers. Their latest project is Evil Media Distribution Centre (2013).
