Jonathon Keats is one of the most popular and richest Artist who was born on October 2, 1971 in New York City, New York, United States.

Keats made his debut in 2000 at Refusalon in San Francisco, where he sat in a chair and thought for 24 hours, with a female model posing nude in the gallery. His thoughts were sold to patrons as art, at a price determined by dividing their annual income down to the minute.

In 2002 Keats held a petition drive to pass the Law of Identity, A ≡ A, a law of logic, as statutory law in Berkeley, California. Specifically, the proposed law stated that, “every entity shall be identical to itself.” Any entity caught being unidentical to itself was to be subject to a fine of up to one tenth of a cent. Deemed “too weird for Berkeley” in an Oakland Tribune headline, the law did not pass. However it did become a topic of debate in the 2002 Massachusetts gubernatorial race, garnering cryptic words of support from the Mitt Romney campaign and sparked a copycat petition drive in Santa Cruz, California. In the same year, amidst tightening post-9/11 security, Keats initiated a series of anonymous self-portraits of visitors to the San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery, created by fingerprinting them as they entered the building. And at Modernism Gallery in San Francisco, he premiered his first musical composition, “1001 Concertos for Tuning Forks and Audience”.

In 2007, Keats created a mobile ring tone based on the John Cage composition 4’33”, a remix comprising precisely four minutes and 33 seconds of digital silence, sparking controversy in the classical music community, and the world of technology, while attracting a following in the world of astrology. Titled “My Cage (Silence for Cellphone)”, the ringtone has since been broadcast on public radio in both the United States and Sweden, discussed in a monograph about Cage published by Yale University Press, and included in a museum exhibition on Cage at HMKV in Dortmund, Germany. In Chico, California, Keats opened the world’s first porn theater for house plants, projecting video footage of pollination onto the foliage of ninety rhododendrons. He released a cinematic trailer on YouTube. His film was widely commented upon in the media following coverage by Reuters and the BBC News Hour. At the RT Hansen Gallery in Berlin, Germany, he sold arts patrons the experience of spending money. For an exhibition at the Berkeley Art Museum, he designed a new kind of electronic voting booth, based on a nationwide network of ouija boards. While ouija voting booths have yet to be implemented in a major election, California Magazine cited the project in a 2007 round-up of “25 Brilliant California Ideas”. At Modernism Gallery in San Francisco the following month, Keats developed new miracles, including novel solar systems and supernova pyrotechnic displays, which he made available for licensing by gods. In addition, he composed a sonata to be performed on the constellations, released through GarageBand.

In early 2009, Keats was an artist-in-residence at Montana State University in Bozeman, where he opened the world’s second porn theater for house plants, based on the porn theater he opened in Chico, CA in 2007, but in this case catering to an audience of local zinnias. He also composed a song to be performed by Mandeville Creek on the MSU campus, orchestrated by rearranging rocks melodically, using the musical structure of the medieval rondeau. In June, Keats created “The Longest Story Ever Told,” a 9 word story printed on the cover of the eighth issue of Opium Magazine, “The Infinity Issue.” The story is printed in a double layer of black ink, with the second layer screened to make each successive word fractionally less vulnerable to ultraviolet radiation. When exposed to sunlight, words will appear at a rate of one per century over the next one thousand years, an effort deemed one of the seven best magazine tech innovations by Tech Radar and called Joycean by NBC, but judged to be “about as practical as a shark in formaldehyde” by the Independent (UK). Keats attempted to counteract the global recession in November by introducing a mirror economy backed by antimatter. In order to implement his idea, Keats opened an “anti-bank” which issued paper currency in units of 10,000 positrons and higher. Featured on Good Magazine’s annual Good 100 list, Keats’s First Bank of Antimatter was championed by New Scientist as “a true attempt to make something out of nothing” and lambasted by The Discovery Channel as “the epitome of caveat emptor”.
