mMa internet + LOG, 2004


These works were created for ‘mMa’, curated by Bianca Hester, CLUBSproject Inc., Fitzroy.

Developed to provide internet access to artist run space CLUBSproject Inc. the wireless internet connection piggybacked of the nearby Gertrude Contemporary Art Space network. A long range wireless link was established through the use of a ‘cantenna’, a directional antenna constructed from a pineapple juice can, and a parabolic reflector, constructed from cardboard and aluminium foil.

Also developed for the mMa exhibition, LOG consists of an Apple Macintosh SE30 with keyboard (but no mouse). The computer run software specifically written for this event which enables artists and visitors to log events via a text interface.
