http://www.furtherfield.org/displayreview.php?review_id=390

"Patrick Lichty is an individual who seems to be like a non-stop engine. 
A hungry human being, engulfed in a prolific journey of constant 
exploration, whether it be making artworks, writing, activism, curating, 
collaborating, researching or teaching; he's deeply involved and engaged 
in media arts culture. Since 1990, he has pursued art and writing that 
explores how we relate to one another through technology and how we 
relate to it. This includes art, media, and computer technology.

Lichty also works in almost all forms of Digital 3D - Animation, VR, 
Fabrication, Physical Computing. Translating the work for display 
through video, animation, live installation, electronics, virtual 
reality, physical computing, robotics, digital fabrication and imaging. 
As well as realising virtual works into traditional forms such as plates 
for print, paintings, expanding the focus of his work in a broader context.

Lichty's work, concepts and practice do not rest in one place, it 
crosses over into many areas of creative production. By getting his 
hands dirty with the medium of technology, with its relational aspects. 
The spirit of the work goes beyond singular catch phrases and 
one-liners, adding complexity and value which only media art and its 
ever widening scope can demonstrate.

It's big art with big ideas, interwoven with micro levels of human 
emotion, asking questions about life and more. This two part interview 
aims to clarify some questions I have been wanting to ask Patrick Lichty 
for a while now, so hang on and lets see what happens." M.Garrett
