Scott Beibin, vj of LOST FILM FEST is a culture jamming subcultural figure best known for his roles in founding the Evil Twin Booking Agency with Liz Cole, and his other projects Bloodlink Records and The Redefinery. Recognized as a cornerstone behind the scenes innovator of the 21st century "do-it-yourself" media landscape with his pioneering model of self-reliant distribution for artists, Beibin has traveled around the world performing as the Lost Film Fest's vj, storyteller and curator (sometimes presenting the program in French or Spanish). His related projects also connect the worlds of academia, arts, subculture and activism.

Some of his culture jamming shenanigans include working closely with The Yes Men and others on a fake New York Times announcing the end of the Iraq War, pranking the Jerry Springer Show with Justin Pearson (The Locust), and holding a very controversial guerrilla screening of Lost Film Fest onto the Skull and Bones 'crypt' at Yale University. Beibin’s vision has been to keep one foot in the outsider-art underground, and the other in the media industry to facilitate information dissemination and effective action.

Along with Liz Cole, he's the co-founder of the Evil Twin Booking Agency, which manages and books tours for some of the most important cultural voices of our time.

Through The Redefinery project he crafts innovative national grassroots messaging campaigns for independent films and eco-friendly products.

His commitment is to strive towards socially and environmentally conscious outcome-based projects that blend the best of what media, academia, activism, and creative content can offer while working towards engaging audiences.
