Request for qualifications for selection of art technician consultant to provide technical support and ongoing maintenance for technology based art projects as part of the ARt + Technology Program at the Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport.

The consultant oversees the largest concentration of technology-based public artwork in the country. The collection includes a giant propeller-driven robotic sculpture, streaming networked cameras, a massive cloud of flickering glass, liquid-cooled projectors, twitter feeds, and a school of live fish with underwater surveillance cameras. Working from an underground Art+Tech workshop with electronics bench and state-of-the-art sound system, the ArtGeek keeps it all humming. Three-letter acronyms don't phase the ArtGeek in the least: SSH, VPN, SCP, XML, UDP, API, EC2, RSA, PGP the ArtGeek knows them all.
