Monsieur François Drolet, talented Montréal artist, was shot earlier this morning by a group of street hackers who’ve attempted to steal his artistic expression! Monsieur Drolet has left a legacy in the Montréal art community, one that cannot be tainted by these phreaks!

Secret Agents,

You are among a select group chosen to carry out this perilous assignment. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to uncover the diverse forms of art and culture that surround the city of Montréal, and complete the checkpoints to create a collective culture jamming vernissage as a commemoration to Monsieur François Drolet.

Throughout the mission, you will be required to make your individual cultural jams and remix pieces. All agents will be required to own a social media account where you will record your creations and document your progress during each assignment by posting them to your respective accounts.

Before you embark on this mission, please take note of a few things:

  1. If you ever need assistance for completing each assignment successfully, return to the website under ‘Need help?” tab. You’ll find the hints you need with each respective blogpost.
  2. Since Monsieur François Drolet’s inspiration derived from various art movements and histories, the agency has included short excerpts on the various checkpoints you will be encountering on the mission. The agency encourages you to read them as you wish for they might inform your reformation of Drolet’s work.
  3. Open each mission (envelopes) at the appropriate checkpoint. Do not forget to post your pictures–Monsieur François Drolet’s legacy depends on you….WE are depending on you.

Your mission begins…
