Born in Fremantle in 1982, Jasper attended a Steiner school then studied both Photography and Fine Arts at Central TAFE. Taken to rallies from an early age by his activist parents, Jasper was photographing such events from the age of 13. While studying Fine Arts, Jasper became more interested in experimentation with video, and also collaborating on cross-media events such as Creatures of the Underworld.

His day-job at Plaza Digital Cameras enables him to access the latest digital equipment, and in collaboration with his partner Kat (a fellow member of the 3minutes.net collective) he has been VJing at events around Perth for about a year under the name of bunniboi.com. He also likes to experiment with photography - see jaspercook.com.

Jasper's principal role in live performances for the collective will be as VJ, manning the main video mixing desk. This has both creative and technical aspects, creating, manipulating and blending content from a number of sources for projection. The VJing will be in collaboration with Kat.

Jasper's developmental role in the project will be technical advice regarding video and photography; experimentation with videography; development of artistic visual content to blend with live performance; management of video and projection equipment and other responsibilities relating to the multimedia aspects of the project; DVD production.

Jasper is primary contact for anything relating to 3minutes.net's VJing, projection etc.
