Nancy Paterson (born 1957) is a Canadian artist and writer known for her work in new media.[1][2][3]

Work

Paterson is considered to be an important contributor to the cyberfeminist movement[4][5][6] and to the discussion of the role of gender in electronically mediated experience.[7][8]

Paterson is also known for her electronically-based artworks. Her 1998 work Stock Market Skirt connected the physical height of a skirt hemline with the realtime movement of the stock market.[8][9] Her 1989 work Bicycle TV placed the viewer on a bicycle facing a video screen as the viewer cycled, then controlled their movement through scenes of the Canadian landscape projected before them.[10][11][12]
