Abstract
1156+295 is probably the best studied of the optically violently variable (OVV) quasars. By a combination of long-term optical and radio monitoring, a large number of multiwaveband observations based around X-ray observations with EXOSAT, and a series of multifrequency VLBI observations, we have been able to build up a good model of its activity in term of shocks in a bending relativistic jet.
