I have a conflict of interest because I was involved with WORM and moddr_, so I am requesting this change rather than editing the article directly.
The article currently says:
"The cooperative at moddr_ developed the Web 2.0 Suicide Machine and hotglue.me. Individual people involved designed and developed those projects."
This is currently uncited and does not explain what moddr_ was.
Could an uninvolved editor please replace that wording with:
"From 2007, WORM was associated with moddr_, a Rotterdam media lab established as a joint project of Piet Zwart Institute alumni and the WORM Foundation. The lab brought together artists and hackers working in critical forms of media-art practice. Danja Vasiliev, Gordan Savičić and Walter Langelaar were members of the moddr_ group and collaborated on the Web 2.0 Suicide Machine. HOTGLUE, another project developed in this environment, was created by Vasiliev and Gottfried Haider."

The intention is mainly to replace the existing vague and unsourced wording with a sourced description of WORM's media lab and its projects. I am happy for an uninvolved editor to alter the wording to fit Wikipedia style.
