About Nimrod Kamer

Born 1981. Nimrod Kamer is a journalist and artist.

Selected spoofs, satires and journalism Kamer has made several adversarial news films alongside satirical reporting.

In 2006, Kamer visited Egypt and made a five-minute documentary titled Girls at the Cairo National Stadium during one of the matches of the Africa Cup of Nations. In the film he focused on the female spectators in the crowd, which caused the Daily News Egypt to write an article called "Filming Gone Too Far?", about the ethics of filming Egyptian lady fans without permission.

In April 2012, he made a series of prank videos in which he extorted celebrities vis-á-vis vandalising their Wikipedia pages. In May 2012, he posed as a rich man and made "indecent proposals" to celebrities such as Kelly Brook attending the Cannes Film Festival. In April 2012, he appeared in the video series produced by Don't Panic, dressed in an old lord outfit whilst arriving at the House of Lords to claim various expenses (Lords are reimbursed for expenses). He "purchased" land in Scotland, a token amount for £29.99, which presumably made him a de facto lord. In October 2012, Kamer created a fake Obama Kenya birth video to highlight the "Birthers" and Donald Trump's obsession with getting an old 8mm footage of the US president's alleged African birth.

During 2013, he created a fake TED Talk with Billie JD Porter to ridicule the TED apparatus and satirise individuals and companies who use Wikipedia for profit. It was embedded on Gawker. In March 2013, he reported on the new "finger hashtag" in Wired magazine.

In June 2014, Kamer joined Katharine Hamnett to perform a stunt outside Hackney Town Hall, aiming to make Hackney Mayor Jules Pipe ban all Monsanto Roundup herbicides being used in the borough. In July 2014, Kamer travelled to Nassau to investigate a leak by Edward Snowden that suggested the NSA listen to phone calls made in the Bahamas. He spoke with local ministers, parliament members and attended a local Freedom of Information rally. In December 2014, Business Insider reported on Kamer's satirical quest to become the worst rated passenger in Uber's history.

Kamer has been described as "the doyen of club-crashers". His article "The Art of Getting In" is a satirical piece on clever ways to get into members-only events and locations normally reserved for the rich and (almost)-famous, which he calls a "new form of class warfare". His first piece as a regulator contributor to Air Mail magazine is a guide depicting the various ways to enter Mar-a-Lago without a membership.

Other works In November 2015, Kamer and German novelist Delilah Jay released a song entitled "It's A Boy" with the hope of representing the United Kingdom in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest 2016. Eurovision news source Wiwibloggs published the story. Kamer also hosted The Golden News Shower on Fair Planet, directed by William Pine and commissioned by Joseph Reich.

In 2018, The Social Climber's Handbook: A Shameless Guide by Kamer was published through BIS Publishing, with illustrations by Charlie Behrens (son of Timothy Behrens).
