The real-reel-to-reel-network(RRTRN) is a media archaeological platform that investigates a fictional, part electronic, part acoustic and part mechanical network. Terminals consists of a modified reel-to-reel tape deck and a computational work-station are connected in one gigantic tape loop. Every message that a user on the terminal writes, will be modulated into sound, recorded on the tape and sent(=rolled) to the other terminals. There the received audio signal will be demodulated back into the message. RRTRN deals with the materialisation of networks and reveals hidden technological layers and deals with contingency in the development of technology by considering media of the past and imagining different uses.
