Kris Khaira is a web developer/designer based in Penang. He has been designing and developing websites professionally for over 10 years and his expertise lies in Drupal, AJAX, CSS, OpenX, phpBB and UNIX sys admin. His best work includes working on the UI for The Auteurs as well as LifeLogger, a social network started by DiGi, one of the 3 big mobile telcos in Malaysia.

Chi Too is a video and television director, cinematographer, editor, and writer with a special interest in indigenous people and environment issues. He sees video as a means to lend voice to those who have no access to media space and outlets. Despite being a filmmaker, Chi Too is on a quest to educate cash strapped NGOs that ‘perhaps video is not what you need’. He will only pick up his video camera and accept their money only if the benefits of video is truly worth the effort and resource invested into it. Otherwise, he is still happy to work for other organisations in his efforts to help the former.
