Listener

The concept of the speed show within a Belhuis is, to me, about limitations. It is also about performance (in both its senses) and simplicity. Perhaps the greatest limitation is technical, as we cannot 1)rearrange/reconfigure hardware 2)use our own hardware 3)have limited software to work with 4)and cannot install our own software. The piece will therefore have to live within a (potentially crappy) browser, and perform optimally even under terrible computing/bandwidth conditions. For that reason, I chose to build a lightweight, text-based, multi-user application that can be interacted with from different Belhuises in the city (or the world, for that matter).

More details to come...
