Federico-project proposal
- How do you plan to make it?
Preparation: Testing out different network's protocols and prototype different devices, from the diy to the hacking.
Research: Find a proper area/community where to propose the activation of the tool
Making: blasphemy every night for a few months
Testing: think about a worksop in Rotterdam before the
Activation: go to the place and learn with its ecosystem the potential of the tool
Pirating: subvert the neo-liberal hegemony [beta]
- What is your timetable?
- Why do you want to make it?
- Who can help you and how?

What do you want to make?
- A series of tools which use wirless connectivity
- A series of tools which use long-distance communication
- A series of tools that are not mere services
- A series of tools for an always ongoing collective learning
- A series of tools for self-management
- A series of tools p2p and/or broadcasted.
- A series of tools to shape and redistribute the flow of knowledge(s)
- A series of tools to shape and redistribute the flow of power(s)
- A series of tools to dwell the territory or and the hyper-territory and or the meta-territory (ongoing-urbanism)
- A series of tools to narrate the territory or and the hyper-territory and or the meta-territory (past-urbanism)
- A series of tools to change the territory or and the hyper-territory and or the meta-territory (urbanst-ing)

Why do you want to make it?
The magical narration applicable on wireless could be "an alternative system of reality to Technic. While Technic attempts to capture the world through an 'absolute language', Magic centres its reconstruction of the world around the notion of the 'ineffable' that lies at the heart of existence." [About Technic and Magic of F. Campagna]
After outlining this points of view, I would then propose different approaches to wireless tools in the same attitude of magic, imagining a reconstruction of infastructures (architecture) and its dwelling (urbanism) avoiding a monolithic approach to technology and reality.
Data are not only big data, data are not aimed to a violent extraction, "Data is a relational tool". Every interaction is a data, and also in the offline world.
can we embrace and experience a new dwelling of the radio waves spectrum? Think about a multitude of networks ecosystems? Build different infrastructures and inhabit them with different protocols?
The attempt of answering these questions is the reason why I would embrace this research.
Who can help you and how?
Dennis De Bel, Roel Roscam Abbing ==> for their works, for technical and sensemaking feedbacks Oriana Persico, Salvatore Iaconesi ==> for their attitude on the activation of situations
Relation to previous practice

Hotspots and instructions
Wifi's scream
Wifi's scream it's a sound-printer, a tool to sonificate the moment of any single wireless data exchange. When there is an interaction on the browser, different requests are sent to the router and the router send back datas. This create an invisible chaos of waves, but it can create an audible scream.
