Psychic workers

Psychic worker is the term first used around 2010 by the DAMTP (DAta Miners Travailleurs Psychique) to self define as a union of Data miners and psychic workers.[1]. The term was used initially to describe their activities instead of using the term 'artist', in order to "supersede the art strike."[2] [3]. It has subsequently also been used by members of DAMTP to describe and develop their avant-garde activities.[4]
