Americanvirus is Jonas Seaman (aka Jonas Marlowe).

 

I like to draw pictures,

 

take photos,

 

and make little movies.

 

I started posting these little experiments in July of 2008.

 

Since then, my work been invited to be on exhibit as art installations:

 

at The Gasteig Cultural Museum in Munich Germany (Dec. 2008 - Feb. 2009),

 

as part of the Lange Nacht der Musik ("Long Night Of Music") Festival in Munich, Germany (May 2009),

 

as part of the Copper Building's 'Video Wall' sponsored by flux.net/ in downtown Los Angeles, California USA (running indefinitely as of June 2009),

 

at the ZooArt International Exhibition of Contemporary Art in Cuneo, Italy (July 2009).

 

In December of 2009 I was approached by Getty Images to become one of their contributing photographers.

 

and In January of 2010 I was signed by Getty to license my photos for commercial use through Flickr.

 

My photos have been published in ad campaigns, books, and Seattle Sound Magazine.

 

You can also follow me on TWITTER, VIMEO and LIVE FOR FAME.
