During this past October, I was fortunate to get the chance to be lead curator with the International Digital Media Arts Association for their IDEAS Exhibition in 2016. It was a great event, 32 amazing artists showing in the&nbsp;Laird Norton Building on Winona State University&#8217;s campus in Winona, Minnesota. Two other co-curators EJ Herczyk and Jinsil Hwaryoung Seo helped in the curation of the show. There were 8 judges including Christian Paul and Dena Grigar.
