1969–2022

Jeremy Hight (1969–2022) was an artist, information designer, writer, editor, and theorist who shaped the field of locative narratives. Integrating unseen histories, and human interaction with city space and GPS, Hight collaborated with artists Naomi Spellman and Jeff Knowlton on the project 34N118W (2002) in downtown Los Angeles, which won the grand jury prize at the AIM (Art in Motion) IV: Interference Patterns Festival of Time-Based Media (2003). He also was new media curator of the online version of the MIT Press journal Leonardo. His works have been shown in museums, galleries, and festivals internationally. He published dozens of essays, articles, and book chapters on locative media, new media, augmented reality, interface design, spatial internet applications, and language theory.
