Komotion International was “a legendary artist collective, gallery, and performance space that exemplified the radical politics and creativity of SF’s Mission District.” (Robin Balliger) It produced a series of newsletters, a magazine, and sound magazines / albums, all centered around a radical performance space and collective in San Francisco, from roughly 1985-1995. Freddie did a lot of art for the print publications, as well as publicity posters and graphics for performances.
