Abstract: | An unconventional bookwork that exists in the physical space of a custom software program. Upon execution a small amount of the processing power of the hosting machine is being re-directed to connect over an HTTP protocol to a custom network of radios distributed in Continental Europe. The bookwork is accompanied by a card that explains the context and is offered in a sterile anti-static envelope. The work asks questions about privacy, and the role of private networks and public networks and ultimately seeks to allow the reader / user to affect and assert their own agency in a landscape of subtle and invisible networks of power. The work is produced in an edition of 50 units. The sales of all proceedings are going towards humanitarian aid in active warzones. | ||||
