Matt Piedmont, 13, is a filmmaker and artist. He lives in the guest potting shed on the Gelson family mushroom farm, located just outside Casper, Wyoming. He spends his days in the shed experimenting with neopost-postmodern-classical neo-realistic faux Dali/Lichtenstein/Burroughs cut-up techniques thru the manipulation of film and post-war children's encyclopedias whilst playing the Velvet Underground's third LP over and over again on an old Califone schoolroom record player. He likes cats and is married to the famous conceptual video artist, writer and provocateur Jyll Cargerman.
