Adriene Jenik is a telecommunications media artist who has been working for over 15 years as an artist, teacher, curator, administrator, and engineer. Her works combine "high" technology and human desire to propose new forms of literature, cinema, and performance.

Some of Jenik's research includes the development of large-scale community-based events using wireless networks. She served as Art Director on the CAL-IT2 and Hewlett Packard sponsored ActiveCampus project, for which she initiated several campus-based experimental events including the ActiveCampus Explorientation.

Jenik then developed a practice she calls Distributed Social Cinema resulting in a series of productions about iconic public spaces in the year 2030 called SPECFLIC. Each iteration offers a live story-world composed of layers of multiple media forms (including live televisual performance, streaming audio and video, locative media and audience participation through cell phone photo and txt messaging).
