I’m Miles Curtiss, a native of the Columbus, a musician, community
organizer, and third generation chronic do-gooder. I work with
FreeGeek Columbus, The University Area Enrichment Association, The
Ohio Community Computing Network, and Columbus IndyMedia, mostly
helping under resourced people and communities get access to, and
training for, computers, self publishing, and e-waste recycling. I’m
also very active with Yay Bikes, The Third Hand Bike Co-Op, Arawak
City Gardens and other groups centered around transportation and
fighting poverty. In the past, I’ve been involved with the Columbus
League Of Young Voters, and the BLD artist co-operative. I’ve been
drawn to the university area for it’s energy, it’s creative capital,
and it’s easy maneuverability. It is a place where tens of thousands
come every year to become independent. After finishing my own
university experience, this is the place I immediately came to. This
neighborhood has always glowed with a “make your own future” ethic
that has informed me ever since I was old enough to walk from downtown
to the campus area record stores.
