		The Bureau was formed in Melbourne Australia in 1991 by engineer/theorist Natalie Jeremijenko and radio journalist Kate Rich, in addition to artist Daniela Tigani; and incorporated in the Cayman Islands in 1992.
		The anonymity of the Bureau was in part a strategy to reflect on the anonymity of technical production - the diffused accountability and ethnographic anonymity in which information technologies and software are generally produced.
		In retrospect, acts of proto-terroristic reverberance, as we explored a type of social control that was becoming palpable, enacted with and through the new technologies.

		At the same time, the rise in the status of the Bureau has meant that government has had to take the work of the organisation much more seriously, especially in the politically sensitive field of climate change where research findings could influence the future direction of social and economic behaviour within the community.
		And finally, there has been the growth of international meteorology, in which the Bureau has often played a prominent role, using this to persuade sometimes reluctant governments to provide further support at crucial moments, in case Australia was seen to be failing in its international commitments.
		This then is the history of research in the Commonwealth Government's oldest scientific institution, the Bureau of Meteorology, and its struggle to escape the obscurity of being a minor branch of government and become a regular participant in the national and international scientific community.
