Frank Peschier
Founder & Editor in Chief
Frank@jawsjournal.com
@FrankPeschier
Frank is a PhD student at CCW graduate school studying localism, regional theatre design and digital archiving, which means she gets to spend lots of time in Liverpool and its lovely pubs. She likes Dita von Teese, feminism, red wine and is learning to love Drupal. She thinks Judith Butler is a worldwide conspiracy.

Ruth Solomons
Co-Editor
Editor of UAL Autumn Issue
Ruth@jawsjournal.com
Ruth is a practice-based/ed research student based at the School of Arts at Birkbeck, looking at concepts of 'work', 'practice' and 'precarity' through reflecting on her own practice. In the meantime she has begun recycling her old paintings into new works, through cutting her old paintings up with various power tools; taking 'cut and paste' to a whole new level.

Robert Gadie
Co-Editor
Rob@jawsjournal.com
Last year Rob was twiddling around with Deleuze and Guattari's Rubik's cube concepts, and has now shifted interest to the over-the-pond classical American Pragmatists. In doing so he hopes to develop an appropriate epistemology for practice-based arts research.

Babette Radclyffe-Thomas
International Editor
A London College of Fashion MA Fashion Journalism graduate, having lived and worked across three continents, Babette is currently located in Hong Kong as Culture Editor at Stylesight. She is now ideally placed to expand her
research into Chinese fashion journalism and of course eat a lot of dim sum and dumplings. She is a keen synchronised swimmer thus the Esther Williams cat.

Yaron is a PaR PhD at the University of Surrey. He'd like to invite you to collaborate with his exploration of Timothy Morton's ideas around dark ecology and to ponder our coexistence with non-humans. In the dark.

Renee O'Drobinak
Reviews Editor
One half of the publishing performance super-house that is Ladies of the Press, Renee is finding a moment within her packed schedule of printing, research, writing and creating animations about fish (one of her favourite subjects) to bring her critical and occasionally absurdist eye to our reviews section. She admits wholeheartedly to being here mainly for the Derrida jokes and to perhaps one day emulate her hero Georges Perec by constructing an entire review without using the letter 'E'...

Mohammad Namazi
Founding Art Director
A practicing artist and CCW PhD candidate, Mohammad explores attributes of participatory behaviour specifically related to timing and motion. He is also busy with curatorial projects as part of his residency at the Albert. He grows a particularly wonderful beard which is impossible to illustrate in cat form.

Kritika Dhariwal
Pictures Editor
Kritika is studying graphic & Media design at LCC with ambitions to become a typographer. A previous graduate of Srishti College of Art & Design in India, she claims to not be too good at hands on work but her adoration of software, photography and dogs has made her indispensable to the JAWS team

Micha Eden Erdesz
Peer Reviewer
A closet performer whose work involves being observed by real and imagined audiences, Micha is interested in what it means to perform art. What does it mean to be observed making work or at least pretending? Is it a certain kind of criticality? Building on his two BAs in architecture and philosophy, Micha opened what he coins his 'frustrating brain' to your submissions for the first time on the Autumn issue.

Huihui Liu
Peer Reviewer
Having just completed her MA in Fine Art, Huihui has just started her research into dreams, art and psychoanalysis. A duracell kitten of energy, Huihui also heads up the international development of JAWS and for someone so cute.. has some rather dark dreams indeed. Hopefully the analysis of these won't throw up anything too untoward...

Kat St Pete
Peer Reviewer
A Polish-American (or an American-Pole--who can say?), Kat enjoys the many wonders of media theory, Foucault, and single-handedly funding the entire Red Bull brand. She's an avid social media user and sci fi television geek, and is currently trying to approbate her obsessions by gaining an MA in Media from LCC.
