Wi-Fi, Art and Light

Immagine you're driving with your car in the heart of the city. You need to check your mails and messages but you don't know the right spot with a strong wi-fi signal. Wouldn't it be nice to have lights sourrounding buildings that indicates different intensity level of the Wi-Fi network(s) nearby? You think it's science fiction, don't ya? Well, it is not.

Those lights bars that you see are showing the signal intensity and peaks. This project explores the invisible terrain of WiFi networks in urban spaces by light painting signal strength in long-exposure photographs. A four-meter long measuring rod with 80 points of light reveals cross-sections through WiFi networks using a photographic technique called light-painting.

This beautiful work has been conducted by Timo Arnall, Jørn Knutsen and Einar Sneve Martinussen.

XPS funeral

Hi again folks!!

First of all sorry for my absence during this month but you'll understand the reasons behind it pretty soon. This will be a very small post that will give you an idea of why I haven't been here for a while. Please the image I'm about to show has strong visual content so it should be viewed just from an adult public:

That was my beautiful Dell XPS M1710 who just died on my during one of the moment in my life in which I needed it the most. 

If any of you needs more chipset gore, here you go:

I'm now waiting for a new laptop that should be delivered within some days but I'll still keep in touch with you. Thank you for keep on following this blog even when there's nothing really new on it.
