Geert Lovink was one of the key theorists behind the concept of tactical media – the use of media technologies as a tool for critical theory to become artistic practice.

As an Internet activist, he describes tactical media as a "deliberately slippery term, a tool for creating 'temporary consensus zones' based on unexpected alliances. A temporary alliance of hackers, artists, critics, journalists and activists."

In essence, he believes that these new resources of which audiences could become participants in actions against higher powers became an area in which many different types of people could unite.

Lovink also was a founder of the early web mailing list "nettime", as well as a number of other projects.
