Moyer was also one half of the public art project, Dyke Action Machine! (DAM!) atwww.dykeactionmachine.com. From 1991-2004, DAM!'s culture-jamming campaigns dissected mainstream visual culture by inserting lesbian images into recognizably commercial contexts.

She has received funding from Pennies From Heaven, Creative Capital, the New York Council on the Arts, Franklin Furnace and the Peter Norton Family Foundation.
