Waag Society opened up her Wireless Network for public use in the summer of 2002. Laptop users with a wireless card (wiFi,Wlan of Apple Airport) are able to use Waag Society’s network in and around the building. Waag Society is hereby creating a test-environment for wireless broadband use. For the World-Information.org exhibition a wireless connection is made to the Old Church. In the last weekend of the exhibition the wireless connection will be the theme of several presentations and workshops at WIO Works.
Amongst other presentations:
Luuk van Dijk: Wireless access points with free/flash/picobsd.
Michelle Teran: Counter Surveillance and Interference Bumping Camera sniffing, parallel views of public spaces, and how to set up live video performance interventions in urban zones using wireless cameras. Demo/discussion and excursion.
