In the year 2006, NY artist Fluffy developed the idea of forming a collective of professional artists from around the U.S. and abroad to collaborate on art pranks, performances , installations and audio/visual projects. This concept proved successful when a number of approximately 25 artists came together as a response to this call - most from the NY metropolitan area and some from R.I., San Francisco, CA. and abroad, in France and other parts of Europe. These art professionals of various disciplines, each of whom were bringing their own unique ideas to share became the group know as PIN ....collective. The words used to stand for the acronym PIN are always changing based on the projects concept and how we chose to communicate it - the 4 dot logo is used to reference both the security feature as disquise for a password and the literal meaning "and so on ....".

PIN .... collective engages in art activities by infiltrating, generating and inspiring new ways of resolving the ordinary. We often express our dissent from the status quo in our work and in addition involve an audience that not only watches the event but participates in it whether consciously or unconsciously. The group then archives the projects with photographs, documents and videotape, so that we can recreate it into other formats, using new media technology.
