Jason Cox
Jason Cox is a Missoula, Montana based artist. He grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico, where he imprinted on the nomadic bicycle mechanics at Trail Bound Sports and absorbed a large dose of mad scientist energy while working at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
His love for zines was forged in the basement of the Fort Lewis College library, feeding coins into the photocopier like it was Ms. Pac-Man. Jason's current work explores materials, geometry, and bicycles. He loves to trade zines.
His favorite color is plywood.
Zines
Projects
Low-power local-access television. A fleet of always-on art-object players showing one shared, clock-driven channel of restored public-domain film — like cable, with no transmitter.
An honest encyclopedia of vintage technology — audio, cameras, synthesizers — with specific, enthusiast write-ups of classic gear.
An encyclopedia of vintage and obsolete computing — the machines, the media, and the strange edges of the Y2K era.
A grounded engine that infers how two different thinkers would see the same question — reasoning from each mind's own sources, side by side.
Steerable film navigation. Explore thousands of films by feel and axis instead of genre — and chart a path from one to the next.
Subscribable Google Calendar feeds of what's playing at Missoula's two good theaters — The Roxy and AMC Missoula 12 — each showtime with runtime-aware length and a link to buy tickets.
Grounded search across the declassified UAP/UFO record. Built from the actual government files — Project Blue Book, the Pentagon's PURSUE release, and the modern ODNI/AARO reports — each scan run through OCR, split into page-anchored passages, and embedded into a semantic index you can ask in plain English. Every result is a real page from a real document; nothing is generated.
