RHZ is a community based project initially started from the personal finanaces of Jeff Cain (hint: he's a student and works for the arts) and the small operating budget from Leefahsalung at the New China Town Barber Shop. While many have donated their time, expertise, and facilities to getting RHZ off the ground (Annie Shaw, 365pm, Doug Goodwin, and the Calarts Center for Integrated Media, just to name a few), in order to bring the project to where it is now, RHZ needs a budget to hire programmers, pay technical consultants, buy equipment for experimentation, and build a “scholarship fund” to bring transmitters to the public.

If you are and art space interested in presenting the project, a philanthropist interested in social technology, or a foundation interested in helping fund research into emerging art and technology research, please contact Jeff here.
