Selected Network Studies
Oliver Smith, Francesco Tacchini · University of the Arts London Research Online (University of the Arts London) · 2017
Network Studies explore the invisible communication infrastructure that permeates urban spaces through sound, graphs and distorted visuals. For each Network Study, wireless data is collected from local networks exploring locations such as airports and embassies, financial and internet exchanges, religious buildings and data centres. The transcript of network activity is later converted into signals, sonically and visually represented. These experiments are collected in the limited-edition SD Card release: Selected Network Studies, released on NUKFM and available on bandcamp, alongside an interview published on monoskop.
